This patch work for me:

This is correct since the `LOGOUT` command has already been sent and this bug seems to be MacOSX specific I guess this is because internally `SHUT_RDWR` is done in 2 steps.

What I don't understand is that in V6.5.7 the behaviour is different (i haven't diff all the code though).
