'Connection reset' is only encountered by the writing end. If the
writing end was closed it would get 'socket closed'.

I hate to be disagreeable but that is not what I am getting. On the app
I am currently working on, if the reading end is blocked on read and the
writing end is closed, I get a connection reset.
