Description

The combination of sockets with buffered transport reproducibly runs into an unexpected timeout error. The cause is that buffered attempts to read more bytes than what is actually available. Since that case is not handled properly at TTcpSocketStreamImpl transport, the code will error out with an - in this case highly unexpected - timeout exception.
