 CPU time have been observed on different Window XP configurations.
 Seems to be a problem in sys_select in w32proc.c.
 
+In its current form, it sys_select says the socket is ready, so we
+call server_accept_connection which again calls accept() which returns
+-1 with errno == WSAEWOULDBLOCK (10035) indicating that there is no
+pending connection to accept.
+
+I [KFS] investigated it a little bit and found that it seems that w32 server
+sockets must use WSAAsyncSelect + FD_ACCEPT to request notifications
+of incoming connections -- but exactly how that is done is not for me
+to look at...
