1579	spiffy does not flush output port	Jim Ursetto		"Port slot 8 (closed?) changed from a bool to a fixnum in Chicken 5, which made the existing port closed test in handle-incoming-request always succeed, so output was never flushed.

This can lead to hangs when output size is less than tcp-buffer-size. This behavior was observed in chickadee when output size < 1024, including on simple responses like 302 redirects.

Fix is to use the official accessor instead, which seems to work fine. I'm not sure if this was a legacy thing, but other procedures in the spiffy code use port-closed?.

Patch is attached."	defect	closed	major	someday	extensions	5.0.0	fixed	spiffy		easy
