This behavior can occur, for example, when process A calls WSADuplicateSocket() and then passes the resulting structure to process B by using an interprocess communication. If process B is currently creating a duplicate socket by means of a call to WSPSocket(), a second call to WSPSocket() before the first is complete may stop both the socket duplication code and the program.
