I hope at least Arne can chime in on this one, as he has done
tremendous work on the socket code.  And I'd be surprised if this
patch applies cleanly on top of our master branch.

Yes, it's an old issue.  But from my brief 3 minutes look at socket.c,
I'd say it looks like to me this is still needed.  The explanation in
the patch makes sense.

But lets hear what Arne and others who know these code paths have to say.
