This is one of the leftover bits of historical lameness in libsoup. It
doesn't pay attention to persistent connections when they're idle. So if
the server times out a connection and closes it, it will show up in
CLOSE_WAIT on the client for a while. Libsoup will only notice it when
either you try to connect to that server again, or if it hits the
maximum-number-of-open-connections limit.
