On Windows, close the client socket explicitly during backend shutdown. It turns out that this is necessary to keep Winsock from dropping any not-yet-sent data, such as an error message explaining the reason for process termination. It's pretty weird that the implicit close done by the kernel acts differently from an explicit close, but it's hard to argue with experimental results.
