Hmm... The message sent by the server is short enough so that it
should be stored in the client's socket buffer and received later
by the client, even though the client is not yet blocked waiting
in clientSock.receive() when the message is sent.

That might work.

Unless multi-threading was relevant to the configuration being
tested?
