In one of my earlier debugging sessions, I thought the problem was
related to spurious "urgent" data indications from select() in
process_rings(). Then it seemed to not be that at all....

I was right the first time. It seems that solaris 2.4 has a bug such
that recv() will cause false indications of urgent data, but read()
won't. change the recv() in process_rings to a read(), and the problem
goes away. This is SUN bug #1185700 (which I found on sunsolve AFTER I
had found the problem, but they couldn't find when I called to report it
earlier... oh well).
