You shouldn't do that (it is likely to cause breakage and may cause in flight
data coruptioN); your problem is not closing file descriptors:

e.g.,:

>aq_server 4804 sheam 210u IPv4 0x30586ae99f0 0t124 TCP zelda:65198->daisy:34114 (CLOSE_WAIT)


indicates that "daisy" has closed the connection but that "aq_server"
is keeping the connection open.
