- According to "Effective TCP/IP Programming" (??) close() on a socket
- has incorrect behaviour on Windows -- it sends a RST packet to the
- other side, which gives a "connection reset by peer" error. On that
- platform we should probably do shutdown() instead. However, on Unix
- we are correct to call close(), because shutdown() discards
- untransmitted data.
