The approach implemented in the patch is to log the exception and retry at a rate of one per second.  An alternative would be a log and a sys.exit() to kill the entire process.  Be aware that the code affected by this patch is rpc created dispatcher like threads.  Let's have a vote on which option is preferrable.
