I think it is unlikely that the app really needs the connect() call to
be non-blocking (otherwise it would have to handle the in-progress
case). So a simple solution in most cases is to do the connect() first,
then the fcntl(fd, F_SETFL, O_NONBLOCK) so that data transfer is
non-blocking.

Regards,
Steven
