[ace-users] Segmentation faultinACE_Select_Reactor_T::handle_error (with ACE 5.5.9)

[Jules d'Entremont]

I'm getting -1 returned from remove_handler().  I assume that's bad.
How can I find out why it's failing?

Jules.

Yes, exactly.

The evidence suggests that something remains not cleaned up. I'd have
a closer look at the remove_handler() call with an eye toward how a
handle could get left registered.
