Here's an updated _writerthread idea that handles more cases:
 def _writerthread(self, fhr, fhw, length=None):
 if length is None:
 flag = True
 while flag:
 buf = fhr.read( 512 )
 fhw.write( buf )
 if len( buf ) == 0:
 flag = False
 else:
 while length > 0:
 buf = fhr.read( min( 512, length ))
 fhw.write( buf )
 length -= len( buf )
 # throw away additional data [see bug #427345]
 while select.select([fhr._sock], [], [], 0)[0]:
 if not fhr._sock.recv(1):
 break
 fhw.close()
