Could you up load the latest patch that applies to trunk?

> Current RPC (really IPC) relies on client side timeouts to find "dead"
> sockets. I propose that we have a thread that once a minute (if the
> connection has been idle) writes a "ping" message to the socket. The client
> can detect a dead socket by the resulting error on the write, so no client
> side timeout is required. Also note that the ipc server does not need to
> respond to the ping, just discard it.
