The zmq_socket man page is pretty clear about the valid combinations I
think. The man page was wrong, not allowing DEALER-DEALER and
ROUTER-ROUTER, which I recently fixed.

http://api.zeromq.org/3-2:zmq-socket#toc3 seems pretty clear IMO.

How does a PULL socket even send a message to a ROUTER socket?  How
can a ROUTER talk to a PULL socket that hasn't sent it a message?
You'd have to cheat with hard-coded identities.
