Ah, sorry, try `eof-evt` instead of `port-closed-evt`. When I swap the one 
for the other, your program gives the output you expected. Perhaps port 
closing is something for the Racket program to do, and is separate from the 
signalling from the remote peer. You'll get an `eof-object?` value from 
read routines when the connection closes.
