I am glad to hear it.  Thanks for reporting back and clarifying the
situation. :-)

asyncore, line 238:
            sock.setblocking(0)

I do not know why you were having the problem you were having, but
simply calling setblocking should pass through to the underlying real
socket and just .. well, do something that is done anyway.

Given that people shouldn't be calling setblocking on stackless
sockets, I am not too concerned about tracking down the cause of this.
 However, really stacklesssocket if it were fully complete and stable,
should handle all proper socket usage.  But who has the time.  Anyone
want to pay me to flesh out stacklesssocket? :-)  That's about the
only way I would ever find the willpower to sit down and really polish
it.

Cheers,
Richard.
