listen mode works. The new default behavior is to accept only one
connection, and quit when the connection ends. This was necessary to
prevent data loss in some situations; some programs require Ncat to
send an EOF before they flush their internal buffers and finish
processing the last bit of data. See
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2009/q2/0528.html for more information.
Use the new -k or --keep-open option to get the old behavior, in
which Ncat will accept multiple simultaneous connection, combine all
their input, and accept more connections after a disconnection.

are sent. The patch was from Tom Sellers.
