Note that I was referring to our "readSocket()" function, *not* the system "recv()"/"recvfrom()" function.  Our "readSocket()" function - which is a wrapper around "recvfrom()" - returns -1 *even if* the "recvfrom()" call returns 0, for precisely the reason you mentioned.

Please everybody, stop 'speculating' on imagined bugs in the code.  Remember, You Have Complete Source Code.  If you find a real bug, please report it (with a clear explanation of why it's a bug).  But I'm not going to waste time following up on random speculation (especially if it's about something that supposedly happens only with Windows).
