I'm not a commiter (so no real vote), but I was just on the verge of patching in these very fixes into 4.1.17 as it is useless to me without them.

I would *REALLY* appreciate a speedy 4.1.18 release.

A bug exists (unfortunately) in Tomcat 4.1.16 and Tomcat 4.1.17 which causes the servlet Writer to stay in an invalid state after an IOException occurs (99% of the time caused by an abrupt client disconnection). After this happens, the processor will never be able to output data using the Writer, causing blank pages. This is more often seen with JSPs.

The bug affects Coyote HTTP/1.1, and may also affect Coyote JK 2, although this is less likely.

It is proposed that Tomcat 4.1.18, based on the Tomcat 4.1.17 code, with the addition of the patch committed by Bill fixing JK 2 SSL support, as well as the following patch (which I committed one hour ago):
