Native Socket Error On OS X (BSDs)

[Michael Franz]

Xiaobin,

I would rather determine if the comments are correct or not.
    // XXXDARWIN: poll() appears non-interruptable on Leopard:
Thread.interrupt() failed to
    // cause interrupt. Does poll work at all on Tiger? Needs investigation.

I am interested in why Linux and FreeBSD cannot use this code.
If we can have the same code for all platforms it will be easier to
maintain.

Michael
