isproxy doesnt close ports properly?

Aprogas reports:
"isproxy doesnt properly close ports after it cannot make a connection
that it would like to make"

Some stats on his machine (log a lot of times):
[2002/10/07-21:06:43]:sockOpen: open failed: host(bla), port(3501)Failed to open an outbound connection.

% netstat -an | grep ESTAB | grep 3501
tcp4 0 0 1.2.3.179.52848 1.2.3.100.3501 ESTABLISHED
tcp4 0 0 1.2.3.179.52771 1.2.3.100.3501 ESTABLISHED
tcp4 0 0 1.2.3.179.52769 1.2.3.100.3501 ESTABLISHED
tcp4 0 0 1.2.3.179.52642 1.2.3.100.3501 ESTABLISHED

So why does it ESTAB, while the logs claim a failure?
