Description Charles Kerr 2003-02-12 17:19:23 UTC 
When making the jump to GNet, all the unix-specific code was taken out
of pan/sockets.c.  Unfortunately this included the SIGPIPE handling,
so pan can crash again with an uhnandled SIGPIPE when giochannel
flushes its write buffer.

Reported by Brian Morrison.
