> The majority of errors that can occur on a call to connect(...) (timeout, host unreachable, network unavailable, etc) are hidden by the io layer. The reason being that the socket is set to non-blocking prior to the call to connect and the result of the connect is never checked.

> This fix make the pn_connect function block by using select to check the result of connect with a timeout (currently 10 sec). Another option would be to be to set the socket to non blocking after the connect, but this can can cause connect to block for minutes.
