Re: [PATCH] solaris socket communications bug workaround

Thanks very much for your very thorough bug report.  It was quite
helpful, and I am able to reproduce the problem you found on my
machine using your script.

I want to look into things a little further before adopting your
patch; it seems more likely, in general, for one to find a bug in
Guile than the Solaris C library.  I'll let you know how things turn
out.
