Summary: netsend: messages sent just after connect are lost/corrupted

Initial Comment:
If you send a great enough number of messages throught a netsend immediately after the connection is established (for example triggered by the 1 output of netsend), the first messages are lost (and no error message issued). Netreceive receives some corrupted data, and then the last N messages sent.

The attached patch illustrates the problem.


** TEST PROCEDURE:
Click on the [connect ...( message box

** EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR:
On PD output window the following should appear:

CONNECTED: 1
DATA: bla bla 1
DATA: bla bla 2
DATA: bla bla 3
...
DATA: bla bla 1000

** OBSERVED BEHAVIOUR
The following output appears:
CONNECTED: 1
DATA: 53
DATA: bla bla 954
DATA: bla bla 955
...
DATA: bla bla 1000

====

Note that if you later click the [bng], all works as expected, i.e. no message is lost: message loss only seems to happen when too many messages are sent immediately after connection.
