Everything is in gdb/gdbserver/remote-utils.c.  Search for the calls to
add_file_handler.

handle_accept_event calls accept, sets remote_desc, then calls
add_file_handler for it.

remote_open does the other call.  It is maybe less than obvious but this
code rules out the use of stdin on windows:

    #ifdef USE_WIN32API
      if (port_str == NULL)
        error ("Only HOST:PORT is supported on this platform.");
    #endif

So, the STDIO_CONNECTION_NAME branch cannot be taken; the others are
#if'd out; leaving just the final one that calls add_file_handler on
listen_desc.  listen_desc is actually created in remote_prepare.

gdbserver uses setsockopt as well.
