I understand the issues here, but that would prevent it being used in
QEMU, and was the whole reason I didn't do it myself and send the
code back (if you remember a period when I was sending rather a lot
of patches).

If anyone would be interested, I have (well had) new-style negotiation
running completely non-blocking from a select loop, written from
the spec rather than the code (at least in part as I couldn't
figure out what the code was doing), as a state machine. I could look
into open sourcing this (we'd probably just MIT/BSD licence it). I don't
really have bandwidth to turn it into a library. It was mildly fiddly,
but I wouldn't classify it as difficult.
