[lug] socket issues

[David Trowbridge]

I just ran into a rather icky sockets problem. I need to be able to know
when the other side closes the socket. I've tried poll()ing the socket for
POLLHUP, but it doesn't seem to work. I know there has to be a way to
figure out when the other side closes the socket without disrupting the
protocol (winsock has a method, and I believe OpenTransport does as well).

Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
-David
