It is fixed in cvs as of about a month ago. If you have to have
outboard modules, get the latest cvs and compile it. My suggestion as
always is to build loadable modules since they tend to be faster (no
latency when starting and shutting down).

I am not sure whether the users' mailing list is the correct one to
pose this question: I have written several outboard modules that
worked fine with DX 4.1.3, but produce an error "connection to
localhost failed" when compiled and used with 4.2.0, 4.3.0 or 4.3.2.
Is this a known problem with a known solution? In the archive I
found a posting by someone of 2002 with a similar problem (though
that person didn't contrast behaviour with older versions) to which
a possible solution was posted that involved changes to the DX
source:
http://opendx.npaci.edu/mail/opendx-dev/2002.07/msg00021.html
Those changes seem to 'go back' to 4.1.3 code, but I suppose
questions as to why that code has been changed into a form that some
people think is worse than the old (and kept in the new form until
today) are better asked in the developers' list...
