I don't know why this was closed for inactivity. I provided the
information I was asked for, so this hould not have remnained in the
Incomplete state in the first place.
I can still reproduce this, systematically, and I have observed it on
several machines and with several servers (with different linux
distributions and from different hosting providers). So I'm going to
change this to "confirmed".
There is one thing worth noting, though: this seems to happen when the client
is connected via WIFI (to a LAN connected to the Internet, of course), but not
when connected via an ethernet cable.
So, I guess this may be triggered by a network connection issue, not by the
server closing the connection?
In ANY case, the client should show a meaningful error message and quit, if the
connection really is broken: not doing so is a bug for sure; and it doesn't
seem there's a good reason for it breaking in the first place, either.
@zulcss please could you try if you can reproduce it when connected via
wifi?
