We were able to get the build to work. For some reason the closed property in FileDescriptor in IO module is being called in the net module.

public private(set) var closed = false

clang ./build/net.o -shared -o ./build/libnet.so
./build/net.o:(.data.rel+0x1200): undefined reference to `_TFC2io14FileDescriptors6closedSb'
./build/net.o:(.data.rel+0x1208): undefined reference to `_TFC2io14FileDescriptorm6closedSb'
/usr/bin/ld: ./build/libnet.so: hidden symbol `_TFC2io14FileDescriptorm6closedSb' isn't defined

Changing it to public is a temporary workaround:

public var closed = false

We should double check if this issue still occurs now that we are using SPM to build Phoenix.

This is a non-issue since this code went away when we merged ETSockets into the project
