The CVS version (perhaps even version 0.12) of gtk-gnutella should do it,
though it's not exactly what I'm running.  After the crash I posted about,
I've been running it for another three and a half hours under similar
load, and it hasn't crashed again yet; nor have I seen any other
unexpected ret's (besides those noted below) get logged.

http://gtk-gnutella.sourceforge.net/cvs/

Though I don't think gtk-gnutella is special.  It doesn't do anything
programmatically unusual with sockets, it just has a bunch of connections
to a bunch of different machines, which are probably running a bunch of
different os's, etc.  And it aborts when write() returns unexpected
values.

I've appended the actual kernel diffs that I'm using; I'd just pasted them
from an xterm before.  I probably should have added ECONNREFUSED and
ERESTARTSYS to the list.

In answer to David's questions, I don't think I'm doing anything out of
the ordinary.  I'm running over DSL with the above card on an external DSL
router.  No netfilter, no tunneling, just IP.

Is there a list somewhere of network options I should report (such as
filtering and tunneling)?

Should one of linux-kernel or linux-net be pruned from the Cc: list?
