[Vortex] [BUG] random vortex crashes

Hello,

I get one random crash per day, using vortex these days.
After some debugging, I've found it's happening at
vortex_channel.c:6140

It seems that new_channel is null and empty and so we get a null pointer 
dereference.

I attached a possible patch, but I'm unsure it's a good workaround.
More importantly, why is new_channel empty ? My only guess is that it's 
because vortex_connection_is_ok fails under vortex_channel_empty_new(...)

Regards,
Benoit AMIAUX
