 or receiving UDP packets.  As a result, libutp's callbacks `on_read` and
 `on_write` are never called, so there's no way how nodes can communicate
 using uTP.  I'll look more into this once the next roadblock is out of the
 way.

 Can you describe the problem regarding Shadow and UDP any further (besides
 that libutp's callbacks `on_read` and `on_write` are never called) at this
 point? Are they using libevent to poll the kernel sockets?
