I also agree with you.
So, currently we have three options.
1) Call CancelIo() immediately after STATUS_PENDING like my patch.
2) Wait for pipe handle after STATUS_PENDING for nonblocking mode
like Ken's patch.
3) Create evt event even for nonblocking mode as Corinna mentioned.
Which is the best solution, do you think?
