	Nice catch :-)

	Right; so one problem here is that Kendy who did the work in this area
has just gone on (well deserved) vacation for a week or more ;-)

	The code lives in extensions/source/update/check/ quite why it is
failing to close the connection there is unclear to me. I -imagine- we
want clients to poll at intervals, instant notification of updates is
not a useful feature to pay for millions of open sockets on the server
for.

	Thanks,

		Michael.
