Just wait my next brain crash, and I'll post you the core file :-p Should not take too much time, as I'm under heavy pressure at University these weeks, a segfault is higly expected shortly... I don't how best we, I and Waldemar, could hands you a good, detailed picture of current stack inner working. Guess it's time we add content to this little current/docs/develop/net/ stack.html page!
