As long as you do not call enable that option all is cool. This is the same bug in 2.5.4/2.5.5. However the case of excution in the development environment suffers for an policy imposed on the driver cores. This will be explained once I have at least stablized that transport. I made one key mistake and that is keep a comman method of entry out the main loop, since applying an extract from the diagnostics API, but even there I made and error but it is not fatal under those conditions. Thus I have pulled the patches for now for 2.4.X, but those do not have the ablity to enable other transport layer core, so if this was the update applied all is COOL!
