Perhaps there is. I'll have to do some research on that.
I've looked into the Yxa code some more and found out that OTP only
returns {error, closed} when this error occurs, so there's not much Yxa
can do about it I'm afraid. There's no way of telling if the connection
was closed with or without the RST-flag set.
