I've tried and both Solaris and (*chuckle*) Linux seem to do same
thing.

If you think about it, it's more sensible to return POLLIN
rathen than POLLHUP there - it's perfectly valid when other end
closes the connection, this is same as when the end-of-file is
encountered for files. Further read on such remotely closed socket
then returns with zero length of course, not an error.
