Worse case scenario, the following read() or recv() on the descriptor 
will return 0 (EOF) or -1 (ERROR) anyway and the application will deal 
with it appropriately.  In someways this is better since it ensures you 
read and processed every last byte in the descriptor kernel buffer.  As 
I think POLLHUP/POLLERR may have priority and can occur out-of-band.

Is this your recommendation to 'cvs update' what level of quality do you 
feel these changes are alpha/beta/gamma/stable ?
