As far as I am concerned, SO_SNDTIMEO applies to POSIX-2017 specification, so
POSIX compliant systems should be alright. Regarding Windows systems, they do
have SO_SNDTIMEO, but their timeout arguments is a DWORD (32-bits) integer
(I'll attach the updated patch for support with Windows).
**TL;DR**
I also thought of using pthreads wait condition timeouts, however, that is more
narrow than SO_SNDTIMEO, and obviously fails without pthreads or with single
thread executions. Yet another solution could be using signals, but that's too
cumbersome and risky, and I believe it's an awful solution.
