how to use AnyEvent::Handle on the child of AnyEvent::Run (aka portable_socketpair)?

Well, that's not happening either (only one child is involved). If you
want multiple children, you indeed either have to create them manually, or
e.g. use AnyEvent::Fork::Pool.

Right, sleep blocks the process, regardless of whether you use fork
yourself or use AnyEvent::Fork.

Good luck :)
