Comment 4 for bug 851187

The twisted bug for this is http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/4558 I think. Though the proposed 'fix' there isn't. Also, making yet another account, on yet another insecure web site, just for one bug, is not something I really want to do. I do have the beginnings of a branch to fix it though, at lp:~dobey/twisted/gi-support . Unfortunately, the SelectReactor design doesn't seem to work so well on Linux, and none of the necessary fd-polling API from glib/gio/gobject have been bound by gobject-introspection yet. :(
