I'm pretty sure we are not terminating the connection prematurely.

After some more debugging, I found a way to reliably solve the issue.
It seems like switching the socket to blocking before calling send and
back to non-blocking while the socket is not connected in sys_write
somehow makes the socket unreliable.

I'll send a patch for further discussions shortly.
