I wonder how do you intend to implement missing POSIX functionality on
Win32 plaftorm
For example on win32 close() will not accepts socket handles and
select() will not work on file handles, meaning
you'll need to reimplement basically whole I/O (open, close, read,
write, seek, fstat, ioctl, fcntl) and socket API.
Then (if ffmpeg uses stdio) you'll need to reipmlement stdio too...
Am i missing something?
