On Windows the error msg is a bit different:

select.error: (10038, 'An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket')

Looks like these come out of two related tests:

   testNOK (ZEO.tests.testAuth.PlainTextAuth)
   testNOK (ZEO.tests.testAuth.DigestAuth)

Curiously, the same tests pass on Zope 2.8 trunk under 2.4, and in Zope3 under 2.4.

Unfortunately, I have no idea what those tests do.  Possibly relevant is that 2.4's asyncore is less tolerant of leaving garbage in its socket_map (like closed sockets).
