Error with termination of remote channel

[chris hemphill]

We have been having many problems with a build that takes about 15 minutes failing with a connection failure.  We are running build 1.558 which has the fix for the PIPE.EOF:

https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-20769


This is the error in the build:
