[plt-scheme] Strange Error: TCP port becomes "full"

I still can't produce the problem on my machines, but probably it
doesn't matter.

MzScheme's implementation assumed that a non-blocking recv() won't fail
with EAGAIN if it immediately follows a successful select(). However,
that behavior doesn't appear to be guaranteed anywhere, and it's easy
enough to handle EAGAIN. So I've exp-tagged a new
plt/src/mzscheme/src/network.c that will hopefully solve your problem.

BTW, the "net" collection contains some FTP client code. If you need
extra functionality and can supply improvements to the existing
library, we'd much appreciate it. (I noticed that the FTP code didn't
work when the server doesn't request a password, as for anonymous login
to ftp.club-internet.fr, and I've fixed that.)
