Hi,

You're quick on the draw! I had just started to look at the relevant 
branches.

This is not an error I have ever seen or expect to see. Does this happen 
if you apply the patches to current master?

This happens when the socket seems ready to read, but self.read() 
returns no data. This could be a problem with one of our method 
overrides on self.read, with how we provide the socket (self.read_fd), 
or the patch conflict resolution. I'm going to look at your branch 
(downloading it now) and get back to you very soon.
