I see, thank you.

Thank you. I felt a bit qualm to abusing fd_set. A bit more code
is not a problem.

I had close look on your patch.

Both 'nonblocking' and 'noblock' are appears in function names,
pgwin32_set_socket_block/noblock/is_nonblocking(). I prefer
nonblocking/blocking pair but I'm satisfied they are in uniform
style anyway. (Though I also didn't so ;p)

pgwin32_set_socket_block() leaves garbage in
nonblocking_sockets[] but it's no problem practically. You also
removed blocking'ize(?) code but I agree that it is correct
because fds of nonclosed socket won't be reused anyway.

pg_set_block/noblock() made me laugh. Yes you're correct. Sorry
for the bronken (but workable) code.

After all, the patch looks pretty good.
I'll continue to fit the another patch onto this.

regards,
