New submission from James Meneghello:
After establishing an NNTP connection for a long-running process (up to hours
at a time), the connection will eventually die and start producing infinite
random garbage output, a small part of which is seen below. Any subsequent
calls to the connection will produce a random stream of exceptions and data, as
the library flips out. This happens with the connection being constantly used
over the time period.
The problem occurs approximately 2 hours after the initial connection is
established, and happens after approximately the same amount of time each run.
The below connection was initialised at 22:03:27 and broke at 23:55:58.
Workaround is pretty simple: kill the connection and reinitialise it. Calling
quit() will fail, however, with a series of random exceptions produced, because
quit() attempts to send a QUIT command to the broken socket.
Tested on Ubuntu 13.10 (which fails) and Windows 8.1, which does not appear to
have the same problem - I'm unable to replicate it on Win8.1.
