I'm trying to compile a mud server (lpmud 3.1.2 -- I know there's a newer version but my mudlib requires this version) under cygwin+coolview. After some minor hacking it compiled fine, but when I telnet to it, it prints the opening messages but does nothing when I send commands. I traced the problem and found that accept() is blocking even when the socket was marked as nonblocking, preventing the mainloop from iterating. Is this a cygwin's known limitation or bug? Is there any workaround? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
