AFAICS you are the only person experiencing this bug, none of us can
reproduce it since Marks fixes, and it was solved for the original
reporter since quite some time. That certainly doesn't qualify for
high priority, quite the contrary.

None of the logs you posted really gives a clue what is wrong, sorry,
so there is not much of a chance to fix it, since nobody knows where
the problem lies.

Daniel, understand this right: it's not that we don't want to help
you, but we simply don' have enough information, and even worse, we
ourselves can't reproduce this, how on earth could we fix something we
can't even reproduce?


Regards, Myriam.
