Well, first it is only a problem in a very small fraction of all cases. Then,
the problem is probably often not that serious to an application when it
occurs since it would normally be when it shuts down things.

I've never seen a report about this, not here and not among libcurl users (who
should be able to trigger this I suspect).

I don't know what people use non-blocking mode for, but I know that libcurl
uses it to offer SCP and SFTP transfers to applications such as curl.
