for OS X 10.7 whos CMSG_LEN ultimately calls a function
updated msvc build to create Release code rather than Debug by default
added posix analogs (rewind, skip and read) to directory class
updated filedescriptor debug so debugging of the buffering can be
enabled/disabled
integrated patches from Neowiz for:
using -g3 if available when --enable-debug is specified
testing the result of getaddrinfo for any non-zero result
when checking for EINTR, not just EAI_SYSTEM,
and also to reset errno between tries
clientsocket to use WSAConnect and friends on windows

occur when it fell through with an error, timeout or 0-byte
read

filedescriptor::readFileDescriptor() - swapped true/false
arguments so it would wait using POLLIN
