Comment(by simonmar):
I appreciate the problem. However, in order to fix this we have write a
new Windows backend for the IO library that uses the Win32 API directly,
rather than the current one that uses the Windows emulation of the POSIX
API. The current version doesn't support non-blocking I/O. I'd really
like a Win32 expert to step up and volunteer to do this!
