[racket-dev] DrRacket + ZeroMQ

Sorry Francisco, I have no idea why DrRacket would cause problems. One
idea is that it is actually bad interoperability between the Windows
GUI toolkit and ZeroMQ. One way to test that would be to use the
command line, but require racket/gui and create a single frame like in
the GUI introduction:

http://docs.racket-lang.org/gui/windowing-overview.html

And see if the same problem happens.
