I've written a nodejs http service that I've configured to run as an xinetd 
service (basically the service receives the connected socket as 
process.stdin/stdout). When the service runs it creates a http server and 
then emits a 'connection' event with process.stdin. 

server = http.createServer(connectCB);
server.emit('connection', process.stdin);

Sometimes the connect callback is called sometimes not and what I came to 
realize is that when it doesn't run it is because it didn't get the 'data' 
listener configured in time and it missed the http request. I also tried 
using a nodejs net.Server that forks a child_process and passing the socket 
with a send call but it suffers from the same issue. In the net.Server 
version I tried doing a socket.pause in it's connect callback and a 
socket.resume in the child process but that didn't make it work any more 
consistently. I think this is something that more than myself would like to 
be able to do. Anyone have thoughts on how to resolve or work around this 
issue?
