Something strange going on there then, which version of zmq are you using?

I was testing, in response to your first post, with the
test_delay_connection.cpp code from the 3.2.2 build and had

ipc://whatever
ipc:///whatever
ipc:///whatever/whatever

Working fine. Although

ipc://whatever/whatever

Doesn't work, I was actually surprised ipc://whatever so clearly need
to learn more about what id valid under ipc.
