Reading the source code for server.go, it seems reasonable to c.Close() in the defer and
remove c.Close() from the bottom of the function.
I suppose you could also just call c.Close() in the deferred function and at the bottom
of serve. The implementations seem safe to close twice.
Does one of these solutions sounds reasonable? I can go ahead and code it up.

I think it's worth fixing this ASAP. panic(nil) anywhere here (and particularly in
unpredictable user code) is silently discarded, and leaks connections. Of course, panics
being primarily used for exceptional cases means this doesn't happen often enough to be
noticeable for some time, which is even worse.
I'm not sure why c, and c.rwc are closed separately, and didn't bother to dig into it. I
think the easiest solution is to stuff:
defer func() {
    if !c.hijacked {
        c.close()
    }
}()
At line 617, and remove c.close() from line 704.
