here's the code in question... Maybe there's a more effecient way, but I think this aughta work...

   $buf='';
   if($fh->sysread($buf,10240)>0) {
    $this=$Con{$fh};
    $buf=$this->{_}.$buf;
    while($buf=~/(.*\n)/g) {
     ${$Con{$fh}}{getline}($fh,$1);
     last unless $Con{$fh};  # it's possible that the connection can b
+e deleted while there's still something in the buffer
    }
    if($Con{$fh}) {
     ($this->{_})=$buf=~/([^\n\r]*)$/s;
     if(length($this->{_}) > 10000) {
      ${$Con{$fh}}{getline}($fh,$this->{_});
      ($this->{_})='';
     }
    }
   } else {
    done($fh);
   }
