Is it required that the O_NONBLOCK flag be copied from a listening socket to an accepted socket? Dan Bernstein believes this is a bug.
If we "fixed" this every inetd on every Linux system would unfortunately stop working. So we have to remain bug compatible.
Alexey tried to do this "fix" and when I tested his change we spotted this issue and thus did not put the "fix" in what we sent to Linus.
