Please try updating from the CVS repository to get the old DO code working -
it seems I accidentally deleted a line, giving rise to crashes on connections
being closed and re-opened, and this should be fixed now.
As for the new code not working - your stack trace suggests that this is an
NSRecursiveLock problem.
On GNU/Linux systems with threads enabled in the runtime, there is a bug in
the objc library that causes crashes on deallocation of locks. This problem
is fixed in the CVS version of libobjc. You can either rebuild your libobjc
for single-threaded use, or get the latest runtime source and install that.
