Seems as if I got this working, thanks a lot. 

FYI, the "timeout thread" i.e. will shutdown() the socket. 
Then my receive and send thread will unblock -- but the receive
thread will wait for the send thread being finished before
closing the socket once. No other thread is calling close(). 

I dont want the "accept thread" to do this as it will keep
blocking itself on accepting connections.
