No. We introduced proper non-blocking sockets all over (on all platforms)
starting as recent as 7.9.3. Before that, we used it for connections-only on
Windows and a short while for connections-only on all platforms.

7.8 is fairly old to say the least.

BTW, by using CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT and CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_TIME properly,
you could probably get the effect you want. If I'm not mistaking.
