This is a bug report based on heresay, so it's less exact than it might
be; however, I still think it might be useful.

A friend's 1.3.8x machine (84 or so) is connected to the Internet via
a dialup ISDN connection. Whenever he tries to telnet out, and interrupts
the process before the dialout is completed, he gets the (in)famous
'socket destroy delayed' messages once every 10 seconds. I haven't yet
been able to persuade him to install the latest kernel, and retry the
experiment. I'll keep on trying :-)
