[Live-devel] deadlock

[Hyperbit]

Whilst I fully appreciate that, I can remove the select line, and use
a while loop around the recv. If I then single step through the loop,
data appears when the select would have blocked indefinately. Even
ethereal tells me data has been sent on the other side (TCP not UDP).

Weird
