The problem with that is differentiating between pipes and sockets.
GetFileType() returns FILE_TYPE_PIPE for sockets (ugh). I did find
some code in gnulib that used WSAEnumNetworkEvents() to differentiate
between them, but I find this quite hacky.

Wouldn't it be possible to call getsockopt(), and if it returns ENOTSOCK
(WSAENOTSOCK), then it is a pipe?

I read reports that this didn't work in Wine. Not that I care that
much about Wine.
