Does it fail on *all* versions of 9x/Me?  I'm testing on XP currently.
However, it's probably important to know that it *will* always fail
on all flavours of 95 since 95 doesn't support the CancelIO() call
which is used to perform signal handling in blocking socket read/write
calls.  In theory (not that I'm carefully avoiding to lean out) it
should work on 98 and Me, though.
