Public bug reported:
The Zesty (17.04) version of nc (1.130-1ubuntu1) no longer returns the
received data when using the '-d' (do not listen on stdin) flag together
with the '-l' (listen on socket) flag. This used to work in previous
releases (1.105-7ubuntu1 Trusty-Yakkety). In fact, in the previous
version, the '-d' flag seems to be required to make the data transfer
more reliable in scripts.
Testcase: Attached script passes on older versions, fails with the
current version of nc.
** Affects: netcat-openbsd (Ubuntu)
