No, actually the bug was introduced in .10 ...
Anyway, I spent last evening thinking back what was discussed with Jeroen
last spring and then cleaning up his last patch a bit. I will send that to
you in a few days.
Now, the problem is that this patch will revert the "fix" that was tried
in 10. Jeroen tried to fix a problem in the applications with a fix in the
lib. After the discussion we finally agreed that the .9 behaviour is
correct, only a few relatively minor bugs needed to be squashed. The "big"
bug is in the applications using libax25io and _they_ need to be fixed.
So finally yesterday I also started to really think how to fix node. The
fix won't be trivial but I'll try and produce a working fix soon. Gosh...
That would be the first new node release since -99 ...
(If you want a quick fix, then Tihomir's patch seems ok to me. But I
really wouldn't like to see that in an official release.)
