This strange error happens when canceling a "Print to File" operation on
Windows:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "zenmapGUI\MainWindow.pyo", line 831, in _print_cb
File "zenmapGUI\Print.pyo", line 156, in run_print_operation
GError: Error from StartDoc
The web seems mostly silent on this error, and I can't guess at the
cause. Let's ignore the error as it seems to be harmless.

I'm not sure why I wasn't seeing this error before:
engine_poll.c: In function ‘poll_loop’:
engine_poll.c:352:46: error: ‘EINTR’ undeclared (first use in this function)
engine_poll.c:352:46: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
compatibility between systems and use cases. [Henri Doreau]
There were known issues with the following cases:
* epoll and regular files
* kqueue and regular files
* WSAPoll and stdin
The --nsock-engine=<ENGINE> can still be used to bypass this
default choice.

It may be possible to have a Visual Basic script to the automatic
updating of the version number, according to this article.

All the information passed as arguments is present in an iod, and we
only call this with members of one iod. Change it to accept just an iod
as an argument.
This code was not always properly cleaning up automatically generated
sockets; for example in the case of "Connection refused". It would
delete sockets even if you gave one manually with --source; it's not
clear that's the right behavior.
