Hi Wim & Tobias,

sendto() and sendmsg() certainly do return ECONNREFUSED (error 61).  It is
largely undocumented for Linux and was not documented for the longest time for
BSD, but both functions do return the error.  I would not have supplied a patch
unless I had seen a error 61 returned by sendmsg().

Documented for other BSD OSes:
http://www.gsp.com/cgi-bin/man.cgi?section=2&topic=sendmsg
http://resin.csoft.net/cgi-bin/man.cgi?section=2&topic=sendmsg

Link from 2001 requesting ECONNREFUSED (error 61) be documented for BSD:

Best Regards,
