My gut feeling is that your patch would be fine as is (have you
tried and confirmed that it helps cases other than slow
clients?)

... I tried a server with --timeout=600 and a client
that cannot download the whole pack file in 10 minutes.  Without the
patch the server closes the connection, with this patch it works.
Additionally I tried it with a client reading so slow that the server
was blocked for more than --timeout seconds, then the server closes
the connection too (this is more or less the DoS case).

Thanks, that's all I wanted to know.  Let's have it.
