I don't think this is +a complete solution to what to do about long-duration network connections +in remotes. For one thing a remote could take a long time to time out +when the network is disconnected, and block other transfers (eg to +local drives) in the meantime. But at least if a remote loses its network +connection and does not try to reconnect on its own, and so is continually +failing, this will get it back into a working state eventually. + +Also, fixed a problem with the OSX Mavericks build, it seems that the +versions of wget and coreutils stuff that I was including in it were built +by homebrew with full optimisations turned on, so didn't work on some CPUs. +Replaced those with portable builds.
