One little thing that tripped me up. If you're using PGM, sending though a PUB 
and listening for incoming traffic on a SUB, you might think you only need to 
monitor the FD on the SUB socket. In fact any NAK from a client gets sent to 
the PUB socket, so you need to monitor it's FD for incoming traffic too. Using 
either to trigger calling zmq_poll() on the SUB socket will get NAK responses 
sent properly.

If you don't monitor the PUB socket FD, only call zmq_recv() or zmq_poll() on 
an event, and don't have any traffic to zmq_send(), PGM NAKs won't get 
processed.
