AFAIK it's a limitation in the MingW runtime that can't be worked
around.

There are a few ideas floating around to have an improved filedescriptor
abstraction layer in squid-3 which would enable MSWin32 handles and thus
native MS Windows I/O (completion ports and everything), but I don't
think anything has been coded yet.

Any takers?
