For Windows I'm not sure it will work. > There's a fundamental impedence mismatch between glib and > slirp/iohandler.

Is it possible to use both? Keep the select scheme for iohandlers and slirp, but use g_main_context_iteration() for Glib stuff. > Believe me, I thought this through. :) > I know, I just try to understand ;) -- Fabien Chouteau
