As with every alpha release beginning w/ 2.0 I have anxiously but

This has been Real Bugged by numerous people and over a dozen have had
problems with this bug. There is NO workaround and its definitely a
show-stopper.
I've looked into this problem, and as far as I can tell your
description isn't accurate. What actually happens in modern versions
of RB is that if two connections come in at exactly the same time,
both are dropped. That's not a problem if you control both ends of
the communication (e.g., you're writing a client/server or
peer-to-peer app), since you can simply wait a small but random
amount of time and try again.
