Just happend while playing around (managing update sites, enabling/disabling/refreshing) them.

Not sure if this is a ECF or more a core.net problem.

This appears to me to be a problem in the unix impl of the core.net proxy API.  The ECF project isn't directly responsible for this code...although obviously we call it.  

I would suggest changing this bug over to Eclipse/Platform/Runtime component (I don't see any net component, so I guess Runtime is the closest thing).  Please cc me (slewis at composent.com).

I'll then resolve this bug as invalid.

Wouldn't it make more sense to move it over there and let them evaluate the problem? And if it's a problem on our end they can just punt it back.
