Indeed, I've just retried with the latest pull from hg and that problem
is gone for me, that's brilliant.
That's one less thing to worry about with 9vx, cheers for that. ☺

is this with the latest 9vx or the bin snapshot?  I know the
snapshot didnt ignore SIGPIPE which would cause the whole vm to
shutdown when writing to a socket that shut down.  However, that
should be fixed in the latest sources.
