#8 wx200d 1.3 hangs with too many fd's open

It appears that wx200d fails to close sockets that are created by
client applications, including the command line wx200 command.
This can be easily reproduced by invoking the wx200 command
several time while observing the /proc/<wx200d PID>/fd/
directory.

This situation eventually appears to cause the wx200d daemon to
run out of file descriptors, at which point it becomes impossible to
connect to the daemon until it is killed and restarted.

The problem ocurs on a suse 9.0 linux distribution, wx200d
compiled with the stock gcc and wit a stock suse kernel.

Thanks,
