I didn't see anything wrong in the code you showed.

I suspect one of the following, in order:

 * A general problem in DrScheme's interface with the Mac OS 9 memory
   manager. (Most likely)

 * A problem in DrScheme's TCP support on Mac OS 9.

 * A problem in the code you didn't show. (Least likely, given the
   symptoms)

Is it any better if you run directly in MzScheme?
