Did you observe actual issues or is this based on the comment in the
existing code ("Should really handle EINTR and EAGAIN").

AFAIK all the users of psock_lib use default blocking IO, so should
not see EAGAIN.

A simpler approach to dealing with EINTR is to ask glibc to restart
with sigaction or siginterrupt.

Instead of busy looping, on return with EAGAIN should probably block.
