 Hi there,
 
 While the fix you proposed looks really reasonable, I cannot see
 how it helps in your particular case.  If you look at the code,
 you'll see that the first conditional there is !BDG_ACTIVE(ifp),
 which isn't true in your setting.  Any ideas?
 
 By the way, would you mind using context or unified diff format?
 Telling "change file bar.c line number X to FOO" isn't a good way
 of sending patches since it isn't robust to other changes that may
 have happened to the source file in the meantime.  Moreover, the
 said format gives context to discuss the code in while your way
 doesn't.  Thanks.
