In short, there's no way to portably detect the socket is closed via a

If that's not possible, how do I remove the socket from the pollset in a
thread-safe way on platforms using select like Win32?
I have posted the patch few months ago, that allows that for Win32.
Feel free to test if it works for your use case.
