Please don't waste any time on this. 1.1.19 will be released as soon
as I can get the documentation finished. Not that anyone has reported
this bug since the release of 1.1.17, but 1.1.19 fixes a bug that could
have this side effect on some systems. (it is specific to tcp/ip connections
and is timing dependent upon CPU speed, memory usage, and system load.)
