(last response to my own post :-)

And of course, the easy to do what you're trying to do is to change:

shouldTimeout
	^timeout > 0 and:[shouldSignal]

This would suppress all timeouts unless shouldSignal is true. BTW, I've 
never seen a case where I've been using a non-signaling socket stream. 
Does that case even exist?
