OK. Here is the new code used in mod_jk
It works for the selected set of platforms
(windows, linux, solaris)

Any comments about other platforms?

int jk_is_socket_connected(jk_sock_t sock)
{
     fd_set fd;
     struct timeval tv;
     int rc;

     FD_ZERO(&fd);
     FD_SET(sock, &fd);

     /* Wait one microsecond */
     tv.tv_sec  = 0;
     tv.tv_usec = 1;

     do {
         rc = select((int)sock + 1, &fd, NULL, NULL, &tv);
#if defined(WIN32) || (defined(NETWARE) && defined(__NOVELL_LIBC__))
         errno = WSAGetLastError() - WSABASEERR;
#endif
     } while (rc == -1 && errno == EINTR);

     if (rc == 0) {
         /* If we get a timeout, then we are still connected */
         return 1;
     }
     else if (rc == 1) {
#if defined(WIN32) || (defined(NETWARE) && defined(__NOVELL_LIBC__))
         u_long nr;
         if (ioctlsocket(sock, FIONREAD, &nr) == 0) {
             return nr == 0 ? 0 : 1;
         }
#else
         int nr;
         if (ioctl(sock, FIONREAD, (void*)&nr) == 0) {
             return nr == 0 ? 0 : 1;
         }
#endif
     }

     return 0;
}
