Hi Erwin,

No it is not possible to detect the failure of the peer. The problem is 
inherently semi-decidable, i.e. you can make sure that peer is alive (if 
it responds), but there's no way to distinguish a peer failure from a 
slow/dead network.

Thus the only thing you can do is a handshake with the peer and if 
response isn't received in, say, 1 minute, consider the peer dead. Of 
course, you won't be 100% sure -- it can still be caused by network 
failure, congestion or somesuch.
