Actually, all the documentation I can find points to mingw supporting
read/write just fine.
If send relaly works instead of write, then most likely
EV_FD_TO_WIN32_HANDLEand the reverse are not working for mingw somehow.

Most likely it will cause other issues though - write on mingw should just
work on socket fds (not socket handles).
So the mystery is sitll there.
