Thanks for helping to debug the master branch of Libevent!  No,
leaking infinite sockets is never the correct behavior.  (If you
didn't actually want to be alpha-testing code, you'd probably like the
stable releases better.)

I just pushed a couple of commits that might fix this; please let me
know whether it worked.

Also, a unit test that causes a great number of sockets to open and
get closed would be pretty cool if somebody wants to write one.

cheers,
