Did you add the "sleep(1)" for testing purposes?
diff main.c main.c~
134d133
<           sleep(1);

Yes, it is called incorrectly. I had this once with XDRIVER, reason was
(if I recall correctly) that my "cvs up -dP" failed. You should check
this and look out for conflicts (and rerun the configure etc).

The monitorcap is unchanged for years and always working. This can't be
the reason (as the CELL driver sometimes works here).

I am still searching for a way to kill the busy socket. Otherwise I cannot
proceed with testing :-)
