> The offending code is in {{DFSOutputStream.nextBlockOutputStream}}
> This function retries several times to call {{createBlockOutputStream}}. Each
> time when it fails, it leaves a {{Socket}} object in {{DFSOutputStream.s}}.
> That object is never closed, but overwritten the next time
> {{createBlockOutputStream}} is called.
