Hm.  It works for me, so I'm suspecting something platform-dependent.
My first guess is that you're calling accept() wrong: you need to
initialize addrlen to sizeof(client_addr) before you call it, if I'm
reading the accept() documentation right.  But try checking for errors
on all of your syscalls to catch stuff like that, and see if that's
what the problem is?
