IMHO, a single socket() call, although admittedly a bit old school :-), is a
little cleaner than reflecting a CF callback to an Objective-C method.

All you need to do is call socket() to create the socket descriptor, then
pass that to NSFileHandle's -initWithFileDescriptor: initializer. After
that, it's all standard Cocoa methods to read, write, and listen for
incoming connection requests.
