   No, someone needs to fix it. There appears to be a form of race condition
that causes the options to be strangly interpreted. I think it has to do with
how the options are packetized - the receiver of them doesn't coalesce them
correctly when they span multiple read calls. This is of course just a guess-
if I knew what was causing it, I'd have committed a fix. :-)
