I would like to register a callback for an event when a socket is about to
be closed by external http server.
For instance, If I send an http1.1 request, and the server replies with a
connection: close , pycurl will handle the
file descriptor closing ( i think ) .

Above behavior, creates a problem as the file descriptor needs to be
unregistered from an IO loop ( epoll ) and by the time
the descriptor tries to be unregistered by epoll, the epoll mechanism throws
an error:

OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor

So in effect, is it possible to capture the pre-closing event in pycurl ->
pass it to epoll to unregister events for this fd -> and the allow pycurl to
close the descritor if it wishes ?
