Ian I think on the mac (mmm I should know this heh?) returns 
OtherEndClosed via self primSocketConnectionStatus: socketHandle when 
the socket is closed by the other side, thus falling thru the
[sock isConnected | sock dataAvailable] whileTrue: [...]    [5] check

The state goes to Closed once we initiate the close on our side.
