There's a difference between trying to handle the user calling disconnect/destroy at the same time a call to accept/connect is active, versus the user calling disconnect/destroy after accept/connect have returned. In the latter case, I think you're fine. In the first case, this is allowing a user to call destroy at the same time that they're calling accept/connect. Additionally, there's no guarantee that the F_CONNECT_WAIT flag has been set by accept/connect by the time disconnect/destroy tests it.
