Ping - Dan, Kevin: Any thoughts on the new API here? I only ask
because there was a bit of feedback in response to the last patch and
I didn't want to stage this without giving you a fair chance to look.
I'm not expecting any real review on the Python, just wanted to see if
you felt like this design adequately addressed your feedback from
before.
Here is the super high level:
1. what was accept() is renamed start_server_and_accept(). It's a
one-shot command to do (effectively) bind(2) listen(2) accept(2).
2. start_server() method is added. It calls bind() and listen(), and
new connections will be accept(2)'d asynchronously.
3. accept() method is added. It does not *actually* call accept(2),
it's more like "wait for accept(2) to be called in the bottom half".
Similar enough.
4. start_server_and_accept() is, by the end of the series, literally
just two calls to start_server() and accept().
Otherwise, I'll just assume no news is good news and I'll send a
pullreq soon so that Peter's NetBSD tests stop being flaky.
