[zeromq-dev] REQ/REP polling bug in 2.0.6?

[Chuck Remes]

I discovered something a bit surprising to me when doing a test with REQ/REP sockets in non-blocking mode.

The first time a REP socket receives a message, instead of it generating a POLLIN event, it generates a POLLOUT event. Subsequent messages generates POLLIN. Is this expected or is it a bug?

I would try this out on master, but I run into a problem during the configure step.

% ./autogen.sh

# appears to complete without error

% ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
