sendfile(2) returns ENOTCONN when the remote side has disconnected instead of EPIPE. Can this fix be applied? Is there a reason for it being the way it is? I know EPIPE can cause SIGPIPE which can cause problems, but the error here is incorrect, and considering that the manpage mentions EPIPE as a possible error... is this perhaps due to a change in the socket flags API? I know the problem is on 4.x and 5.x.
