I really do not remember what was one year ago, but having a long loop
checking closed socket status is wrong. In recent kernels returned error
could be changed to something like -EINVAL, which is correctly handled
by application, it is impossible to say without caling mind readers, but
they are on vacations right now...

It can be some obscure kernel bug which was fixed or hidden, but with
above description it is hardly possible to tell what is going on.
