Hi,
udpsrc on Windows can generate a false error. When sending a packet with
udpsink, if the remote ip/port is unreachable, we receive an ICMP response with
"port unreachable"... the corresponding udpsrc will then return an error on the
recvfrom and WSAGetLastError will return WSAECONNRESET. That error is not
checked (actually errors from recvfrom do not check WSAGetLastError at all). 
The correct behavior would be to ignore the WSAECONNRESET and retry to recv a
packet instead of throwing an error.
