Mmm, when onc() got rehashed for version .5 recently was it changed
in any way such that:

	conn = onc(foo);
	boot_player(conn);

left the other side of the conn not knowing that you'd dropped the link?

Do I have to do something like:

	conn = onc(foo);
	notify(conn, "HANGUP");
	boot_player(conn);

I guess so, but how come it's only now that I notice the problems I'm having.

Whenever.

No; the server does a normal close on the connection, which should in most
cases (see my previous messages today) arrange for an orderly shutdown in which
the far side of the connection gets notified of the closure.
