I am just thinking of making the connection inactive,

shared memory, so the other processes will ignore it as well. Then, if
the connection is active more than N seconds, try to use it again, and
if fails, keep it inactive.
as i mentioned earlier, this solution would be fine with me. i just
went on and implemented a simple solution for serial connections in case
you don't have time to work on a more general fix.
