Heh.

Jarek, thank you for your apprecation of my efforts.

And no, I noticied this your statement in the first place
(in good sense - like, #2 above) -- I wanted to comment on
it first, but didn't.

I was only running tcpdump - yes, it was running almost the
whole day, with different options.  I did almost nothing.

You over-estimate my contribution, really ;)

The very good thing is that this bug is now found, and *that*
is what matters.
