Hi, Elliott

Sorry for late responses, I'm a little busy in the past week.

It seems that current implementation of WAIT-FOR-INPUT on SBCL/Windows have some bugs, I'll look into it in next two days and try to fix it.  Whatever bug it has, it shuold NOT be any bug in SBCL itself, because this function was completely written using SB-ALIEN and underlying Win32 API.

I'll put your code as part of usocket's unit test and see if it also affects other backends.

Regards,

Chun Tian (binghe)

The problem is that a wait-for-input on a TCP server socket which has already accepted one client will continue to return that the socket is ready to accept more clients even though it isn't, and thus cause an error when I try to call socket-accept. Here is the code that breaks it:
