[Haskell-cafe] Project postmortem

[Joel Reymont]

I'm happy to report that the problem can be reproduced by running the  
code from my darcs repo at http://test.wagerlabs.com/postmortem. See  
the README file. I'm on Mac OSX 10.4.3.

The server just sits there, goes through the SSL handshake and...  
does nothing else. The clients go through the handshake with the  
server and do nothing else. The handshake goes through X number of  
times and then the client crashes.
