Thanks for the first suggestions for improvements to ruby-sendfile. I 
will fix it over the weekend and make a gem out of it. That way Linux 
and Solaris users won't be left out, as I had originally intended they 
not be.

P.S. In your test suite for socket_sendfile, you can use the 
IO#nonblock= call by requiring 'io/nonblock' instead of having to 
explicitly call fcntl. Makes the code more readable, IMO.
