Comment (by simoncperkins@…):

 Agreed - that section in the WSARecv docs does specify completion routines
 but as I see it the it completion port is effectively a way of running a
 completion routine on a pool thread.

 I think the key point is that the existing I/O operation has finished when
 the handler is executed. Therefore, it is safe to call WSARecv/WSASend
 again because the existing buffers are no longer in use.
