in reply to Non-blocking IO and threads

FWIW, I do not get the hang if I put a close STDIN; in the first while loop, and the rest still seems to work:
while (1) { close STDIN; ... }
Duh, I guess that should also work if the close is before the while loop...(update: yep, it does):
close STDIN; while (1) { ... }

    This worked for me! Thank you. My proxy server now has the ability to shut down from the command prompt.
