i have a copy of our latest version here:

looking at a diff between that and what i think is the original before my changes i can’t recall exactly why i made some of the changes for add_channel().

As time goes by, its incompatibilities with normal socket behaviour become more and more obvious. My recent changes are not necessarily reliable. At this time the biggest bug is that if the socket is closed, then the socket is really closed rather than remaining open for file objects created from it to use. Fixes or patches to it would be appreciated. As it is, I just have to find the time and interest to work on it when I can in my free time :-) Yes, stacklesssocket isn’t really a solution which should be picked up and trusted to be solid or correct.
