New description:

 Active connections( that is, clients downloading and accepting data ) will
 be closed by varnish if the download takes more than send_timeout seconds.

 We run varnish on linux/debian etch 64bits. We have seen this problem in
 both v1.0.4 and 2.0~tp2-0.

 There seems to be a discrepancy between how send_timeout is defined in
 'man varnishd' and what it actually does.
