1.8.0alpha3 panic on open_network_connection

I got the following panic trying to use the scrabble feature object:

Dec 28 20:28:25: *** PANIC: Unhandled exception!
Dec 28 20:28:25: #71:open, line 19:  server panic
Dec 28 20:28:25: ... called from #1346:@def*ine @paste-def*ine, line 14

Dec 28 20:28:25: (End of traceback)
Dec 28 20:28:25: PANIC-DUMPING on DWMOO.db.new.PANIC ...

#71:open line 19 is:

19:  if (typeof(connection = open_network_connection(address, port)) !=
ERR)

So I assume the problem must be in open_network_connection.  It worked
fine several times earlier today, so this probably is not a very
repeatable bug.  One guess is that the connection failed.  I don't think
I've had a connection attempt fail since going to alpha3.
