Exactly. But actually the non-blocking function will busy loop for the
message body. Nothing else except the message body arrives from the other
side of the socket makes it out of the loop, so why not let it block and
wait for the message body?

I believe this is the right fix. We makes this call a non-blocking
function, but on the other hand we also need to maintain the message interity.
