The problem is that using single socket from mutliple threads can cause 
basically any error, whether assertion, segfault or whatever. Singling 
this one out doesn't make much sense. Moreover, as Mato points out, the 
assertion can happen because of limited OS resources, in which case the 
message would be misleading.
