 I get similar errors when there is an ugly exception in the ZPublisher,
e.g. when trying to send HTTP-Headers in unicode. If the exceptions
happens "very late", this seems kills the thread -- Zope closes
the connection instead of sending an error page.

 If this happens, there is an error message in the var/stupid.log - if Your
problem is similar, You should find some there. However my Zope usually run out
of threads after a while, as it did not fork new threads to replace the
killed ones. Maybe Zope behaves different, if not started with an '-t N'
option as in my case?
  
 This phenomenon happened 2.5.1. Sorry but I cannot reproduce it the
with 2.6.0, as my way to produce a "late exception" has been fixed in 2.6.0.
