Yep. As Charlie noted, we need nio. It is just a matter of time.
If you were to tackle a NIO IOHandler, you'd be a lot of people's
hero. The move to NIO is not a maybe, it's a must...there's simple too
much in Ruby we can't implement without it. We've already started to
use NIO in a few places for things like file locking, so we're on the
way there already. In
Poking around a bit more, I defined AI_PASSIVE to some dummy value and now
WEBrick::GenericServer runs up to the point of select(...). Of course,
this is no big deal since we already knew it was going to fail on select
and that's the sticky point here anyway.

I will take a look this weekend. Anything which gets us closer is
a great thing. When I examined sockets last, it seemed there would need to
be quite a few caveats since Java sockets are a little more abstracted than
all other socket libraries (hence the mismatch).
The biggest pain in theor
I'm trying to get WEBrick::GenericServer running unmodified. This patch
brings the error forward to...the same function call it was failing at
before ('cause of an undefined constant). Oh well. It might be trivial

This brings us *much* closer to a
