I think I've tracked this down - I am scrambling messages due via
(again I think)  rentrancy, but re-entrancy thru the 
encryption layer causing multiple encyrpt(..) passes over the
queue of unsent data.

So I'm just sending the server corrupt data rather than any wierd 
timing foo.

  check whether this fixes my original bug as well. ;-).

The downside of this is that to get this working correctly and
reliably means it going to be a much more intrusive patch than
I had orignally  hoped - is anyone working on tidying up the 
internal io api ?

If so it seems better to co-ordinate our efforts, (and obviously
being the newbie here I don't want to step on anyones toes) or 
am I going it alone on this one?
