I get "Error: subscript is out of bounds: -2" when SocketStream>>upToAll:limit: computes a negative index via "lastRead - sz + 2", which is (0 - 4 + 2).

I can not reproduce this again either. Sorry for the noise :)

p.s. At the time it when I reported it, it was failing consistently and I worked around it by changing the "+ 2" to "+ 5"

Transient network problems should result in network-Exceptions being
signaled, not buffer pointers errors.  I sent a message a week or two
ago, "What is the contract of SocketStream>>#next:?" which talked
about a similar-sounding problem with a different method.  Since then
I saw the problem happen again (#next: 4 giving me back an empty Array
with no error signaled at all).  I traced through the code for over an
hour trying to figure what could posisbly have happened, but the code
looks correct..
