No, socket are required to use tcp/ip. In this case socketpair is used to
stop select. To do this in Windows you can associate a system event to a
socket with WSAEventSelect so you can wait for events with
WaitForSingleObject and stop it just setting the event.
More Windows style and less resources used.
I think in Linux I could use event_fd.
Using socketpair is the more portable way.
