Reply fail. Also autocorrect fail. The C client is old and UNmaintained.

Are you looking the C client? That code is old and maintained.

What msfconsole uses to talk to meterpreter is the ruby implementation in
lib/rex/post/. I've noticed posix meterpreter hanging around after exit,
but I haven't dug into why yet. What platform are you seeing this on?
