No RPC (if I understand what that means correctly), just 'regular' socket 
programming.

Not sure how select() would help here. In this case the "server" side just do 
really simple stuff, basically read and write to socket descriptor. It could 
be that when server is interupted, there is still I/O that makes it not 
immediately release the port. Are you saying using select() to clean up ?
