By design - take a look at the guide: http://zguide.zeromq.org

You're using REQ to REQ, which is not a useful combination. Again, refer to
the guide: http://zguide.zeromq.org (or the man pages)

I'm actually surprised you can recv at all as the first call on a REQ -
that should generate an EFSM, so I'll take a look at that as a potential
bug.
