Yeah you do. The second point under "Problems with select()".

Basically, the Win32 call to pipe() returns a file descriptor which is
invalid to pass on to Win32 select() (as it only takes socket handles).

So, we need to replace the select'ing mechanism under Win32 (yech), or write
a Win32 pipe() replacement that returns two socket endpoints (good enough
for our purposes), or something else...
