Hacking connect.c:

int Curl_nonblock(int socket, /* operate on this */
                  int nonblock /* TRUE or FALSE */)
{
#include <sys/file.h>
  int flags;

  flags = fcntl(socket, F_GETFL, 0);
  if (TRUE == nonblock)
    return fcntl(socket, F_SETFL, flags | FNDELAY);
  else
    return fcntl(socket, F_SETFL, flags & (~FNDELAY));

#if 0
...

No joy. :(
