Hi Dirk

Sorry. I /did/ try the latest snapshot, that was the first thing I tried. 
However, at this time I wasn't aware that we had two bugs at the same time, 
the other one being in asyn/vxi-11. I learned that only later and it seems 
I forgot to check with the snapshot version for a second time.

I thought posting on tech-talk would be enough to report a bug in 
streamDevice. Should I CC you when reporting a bug?

Cheers
Ben
