That's the problem. I thought about changing the behaviour of connect
two weeks ago. I'm not sure if it makes sense to change the error code
translation table for exactly that reason: Who knows what that would
break? Perhaps it's better to change only the connect call to return
EINPROGRESS. On the other hand Winsock seem to have interchanged the
meaning of WOULDBLOCK and INPROGRESS (by mistake?). Hmmm.
