Hi Maxim:

There was recently a commit to fix a race condition in 10-CURRENT which I 
think is not slated to be merged for 9.0.  You might check the commit logs 
there and see if that fixes the problems you have -- if so, we might want to 
reconsider the plan not to merge for 9.0.

(It relates to a race condition on closing sockets..)
