Very recently (a few days at most ago) someone was complaining about the
problem you are having.
According to them they can't get the socket function to accept socket
nonblocking.
It would seem that the function is broken, so you can't set nonblocking to a
valid value at the current time.
Hopefully it will be fixed in 4.0.5, due out in a few days.
