Various notes, all about Python
Nick Mclaren has a large number of posts in the thread this article
references saying this can't be done: but since those threads basically
boil down to 'all existing OSes, including Linux, have bugs in this area,
and tracking them down is so hard that only I in all the world can do it,
we have fallen from an ancient golden age when this stuff worked', I'm not
inclined to pay much attention. (Argument from authority doesn't work,
guys, especially not if you refer to similar bugs in things like TCP/IP
which have 'gone unfixed for decades' and then *don't provide enough
information to allow anyone else to find out what those bugs are*...)
