fix hang because of infinite loop reading EOF
Read() should return empty string when EOF happen, instead of looping
forever. This is the right semantics of read(), and a wrapped version
should not change it.
If you read the read(2) system call manpage, it tells you that when EOF
is seen, return value is 0; it does not say
	``loop forever when EOF happen''.
After the EOF detection is patched you can see the
following exception:

  abort: command: UID => socket error: EOF
