Slave quits when it can't connect to the master

[kauschovar@…]

Every few days, I notice my build slave is not running anymore. When I check the log, I see the following:

2009-04-27 00:11:47,436 [bitten.slave] INFO: No pending builds
2009-04-27 00:12:47,954 [bitten.slave] INFO: No pending builds
2009-04-27 00:13:59,961 [bitten.slave] ERROR: <urlopen error (113, 'No route to host')>

That's always the last line in the log file, which tells me bitten quits as soon as it can't connect to the master. The behavior I would expect is that the slave would log the error and keep trying, because sometimes hosts or routers are rebooted.

bitten-slave --version reports:

bitten-slave 0.6dev-r567

This is the same issue requested later by #403, but as that ticket also contains patches I'm closing this one as a duplicate. Please add any opinions about how best to solve this on that ticket.
