New submission from Roger Taylor <roger.taylor.em...@gmail.com>:

The following problem only occurs when I use ProactorEventLoop.  If I use 
'asyncio.get_event_loop()' it exits normally, rather than infinite looping in 
IOCP land.

1. I run the attached 'bug.py' script in a DOS window.  It is a slightly 
modified version of the asyncio echo server example.
2. It reaches 'loop.run_forever()' and blocks.  I can make connections here and 
use it as an echo server.  Or make no connections.
3. I press Ctrl-C in the DOS window.  Nothing happens.
4. I do a raw connection with Putty and try some input.
5. 'run_forever()' exits and the script proceeds to the 'loop.close()' call.  
Before this is invoked and the infinite loop entered, I see the script output 
'<ProactorEventLoop running=False closed=False debug=False>'.

At this point, the script locks up and never reaches the next line.  It can be 
interrupted with another Ctrl-C, and the following stack track is seen:

        Traceback (most recent call last):
          File "bug.py", line 39, in <module>
                loop.close()
          File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\Shared\Python36_64\lib\asyncio\proactor_events.py", line 437, in close
                self._proactor.close()
          File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\Shared\Python36_64\lib\asyncio\windows_events.py", line 745, in close
                if not self._poll(1):
          File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\Shared\Python36_64\lib\asyncio\windows_events.py", line 673, in _poll
                status = _overlapped.GetQueuedCompletionStatus(self._iocp, ms)
        KeyboardInterrupt

The following code in 'windows_events.py:IocpProactor.close' is looping 
infinitely.

        while self._cache:
            if not self._poll(1):
                logger.debug('taking long time to close proactor')

Note that '_poll' does not actually return anything.
