A synchronous broken read clears IsConnected before cleanup; skipping Disconnect
leaves the native instance busy and prevents later file activations. Track each
accepted connection and release it even after the managed Broken transition.
Add a deterministic real current-user pipe regression: defer the actual server
continuation until its peer closes, then assert the next real acknowledgement.
The unfixed next connection times out10seconds; all4 cases and25 stress runs /
100tests pass after the fix. No retries, deadlines or assertions were relaxed.
Include pipe cases in the required focused job. Retain numeric source focus
coordinates behind the existing test-only trace opt-in for the sole remaining
focused source alignment failure; remove that tagged probe before release.
Validation: zero-warning Release build, full format verification and actual
100-case pipe stress. Prior9fdfc2d focused14/15; distributed proof pending.
