Well, pgStatSock is the only SOCK_DGRAM socket, all the others are
SOCK_STREAM, maybe that's the difference? It's also connected to
itself, although for DGRAM sockets that's not that special.
The documentation isn't totally clear about this. Yet the error thrown
should terminate the process, yet it obviously isn't. Very odd.
Any Windows programmers with ideas?
