Re: [libmicrohttpd] call_connection_handler (connection); /* "final" call */ is called twice

[Christian Grothoff]

Well, I'm pretty sure there is nothing _wrong_ about your code. The MHD
API doesn't actually specify whether it will call you one last time
before the timeout, but what happens right now is that the timeout
triggers the select() to unblock, and MHD goes over all "pending"
connections, and _afterwards_ collects those that have timed out. We
_may_ change that behavior in the future (not that I have specific
plans), so you probably shouldn't rely upon it.

My 2 cents
