Fixed for 3.3, I'm not sure it's very easy for 3.2.2.
The threads are waiting in accept, so one solution is to set "stopped" and
make a dummy connection. The problem is that there are few places that
need to be fixed to support stop/start ( another bug was that logger and
session expirer threads don't stop ). It may be a bit too much for 3.2.2,
but probably can be done for an eventual 3.2.3 if it's important.
