+   * There are four possibilities:
+   *
+   * 1) The socket is connected and we are waiting for data availability
+   *    events.
+   * 2) This is a listener socket that was never connected and we are
+   *    waiting for connection events.
+   * 3) This socket was previously connected, but the peer has gracefully
+   *    closed the connection.
+   * 4) This socket was previously connected, but we lost the connection
+   *    due to some exceptional event.
+   *
+   * We can detect 1) and 3), but 2) and 4) appear the same.  So we
+   * do the best we can for now:  We will report POLLHUP if the socket
+   * has been gracefully closed.
