Thanks !  However, please bear with me on this as it's still not
obvious and I have to ask: is libzmq implementing features (zmtp, other
protocols) not found in the umbrella zeromq that I've built ?  

libzmq could be more what I'm looking to use as a base, since I'm going
C++, so there would be a difference between it and the umbrella...

Cheers.
