+#commit b406b87
+# BUG/MEDIUM: connection: don't store recv() result into trash.data
+#
+# Cyril Bonté discovered that the proxy protocol randomly fails since
+# commit 843b7cb ("MEDIUM: chunks: make the chunk struct's fields match
+# the buffer struct"). This is because we used to store recv()'s return
+# code into trash.data which is now unsigned, so it never compares as
+# negative against 0. Let's clean this up and test the result itself
+# without storing it first.
