I've finally had a chance to check in a fix for this. I hope it works
in your situation. It just responds to an unexpected request message
with a message error, rather than trying to detect your particular
situation.

I wonder if it's really meant to be OK to connect a socket to itself.
I can't imagine that's a particularly useful thing to be able to do.

Cheers,

Duncan.
