This is probably contentious since it would break lots of existing code.
At the moment Calling NutEventWait with a timeout of 0 makes it wait 
forever.  I think this is wrong, calling it with a timeout of zero 
should return the signaled state of the event or return immediately with 
-1 (perhaps with a Yield)
A define of  INFINITE should be make with a value of -1 to do the Job 
that 0 does at the moment.
This means you could do non blocking reads on sockets and devices etc 
and make it cleaner (IMHO).
Ralph.
