I'm seeing a behavior in netscape I've never seen before now that
I'm running 2.1.129pre6. Interestingly enough trying to read
slashdot.org tends to get netscape stuck in a loop where it does:

write(17, "GET /images/topics/topicslashdot"..., 346) = -1 EAGAIN (Try again)

over and over again.

I see that write() is documented to return EAGAIN under some
circumstances, but I've never seen an application get stuck like
this. Could something in 2.1.129pre6 be responsible?
