It compiles and appears to run fine during some initial tests. Thanks 
for all your effort!

Interestingly, the NSE/UDP bug that David and I encountered on Windows 
the other week seems to have gone away when poll is used (it still hangs 
if the nsock engine is forced to select). This presumably explains why I 
was only able to reproduce this on Windows and not Linux. This should be 
less of an issue once Windows uses poll by default, but it would be nice 
for the bug(s) to be fixed as I presume it'll affect other systems that 
still use select.
