Aieee, nice one realizing that problem ! > gnulib does this getsockopt (or at least could plausibly do it, I didn't > check :)) because it opens a libc file descriptor for every socket. > However, this only breaks ioctl and close and patch 18; neither ioctl > nor close's errors are ever checked in QEMU. > Doing the libc file descriptor in wrapping makes the select and poll > wrappers much more complex. gnulib in fact even makes them work on > files, consoles, etc. besides pipes to provide a fuller POSIX layer.

Yep, so I've removed the wrapping of close/ioctl, and in their place I'm wrapping closesocket/ioctlsocket to address errno/socket_error handling in those.
