Looks like the "We'll" can just be removed.

While someone is looking at this, the first paragraph in this section,
which starts "Once the generic server socket has been created..." needs
work as well.  Specifically, this sentence which seems to be missing
something:

"The server blocks in the C<accept> method, which eventually an
bidirectional connection to the remote client."
