Oh, thank you, but you overstimate my ability to undertand other people's code and design decisions.

> The "RTSPClientConnection" object gets deleted if the call to "readSocket()" in RTSPServer::RTSPClientConnection::incomingRequestHandler1()" (line 786 of "RTSPServer.cpp) returns a value < 0 - which should happen when the remote (i.e., client) end of the TCP connection gets closed - i.e., when the RTSP client closes the TCP connection after sending the "TEARDOWN".
Well, that's not happening for me. readSocket is always returning 0. Going one level deeper, I see recvfrom in readSocket does return -1 and err 113 after the client TEARs, but the "HACK to work around bugs in Linux and Windows" makes it a zero again. Ifdef'ing the whole hack for Cygwin seems to work "with no (evident (to me)) adverse effects", making the return value -1 too, not that I'm implying that any is the best (even just a good) solution. I don't know what those bugs were, if they are in Cygwin, even if they are still present in Linux, and forgive me for wanting to avoid delving deeper in OS code. Would any of those proposals be "safe" in case Cygwin doesn't assume responsibility or take too long?
