 *  codes listed below. Note that for nonblocking sockets, a return
 *  value of GSOCK_WOULDBLOCK doesn't mean a failure. The connection
 *  request can be completed later; you should use GSocket_Select()
 *  to poll for GSOCK_CONNECTION | GSOCK_LOST, or wait for the
 *  corresponding asynchronous events.
 *
 *  For datagram (non connection oriented) sockets, GSocket_Connect()
 *  just sets the peer address established with GSocket_SetPeer() as
 *  default destination.
 *
 *  Error codes:
 *    GSOCK_INVSOCK    - the socket is in use or not valid.
 *    GSOCK_INVADDR    - the peer address has not been established.
 *    GSOCK_TIMEDOUT   - timeout, the connection failed.
 *    GSOCK_WOULDBLOCK - connection in progress (nonblocking sockets only)
 *    GSOCK_MEMERR     - couldn't allocate memory.
 *    GSOCK_IOERR      - low-level error.

 *  with GSocket_SetLocal(), or the call will fail. Returns GSOCK_NOERROR
 *  on success, or one of the following otherwise.
 *

 *    GSOCK_INVSOCK - the socket is in use.

/* Callbacks */

/* GSOCK_INPUT:
 *   There is data to be read in the input buffer. If, after a read
 *   operation, there is still data available, the callback function will
 *   be called again.
 * GSOCK_OUTPUT:
 *   The socket is available for writing. That is, the next write call
 *   won't block. This event is generated only once, when the connection is
 *   first established, and then only if a call failed with GSOCK_WOULDBLOCK,
 *   when the output buffer empties again. This means that the app should
 *   assume that it can write since the first OUTPUT event, and no more
 *   OUTPUT events will be generated unless an error occurs.
 * GSOCK_CONNECTION:
 *   Connection succesfully established, for client sockets, or incoming
 *   client connection, for server sockets. Wait for this event (also watch
 *   out for GSOCK_LOST) after you issue a nonblocking GSocket_Connect() call.
 * GSOCK_LOST:
 *   The connection is lost (or a connection request failed); this could
 *   be due to a failure, or due to the peer closing it gracefully.

/* GSocket_SetCallback:

 *  may be a combination of flags OR'ed toghether, so the same
 *  callback function can be made to accept different events.

 *
 *  void function(GSocket *socket, GSocketEvent event, char *cdata)
