Hi Karl

Apologies for the slow reply. I've been sick for the last week.

I haven't used YAM for a while, so I can't be sure. Does anybody know if there 
exists such a bug in YAM?

It's not unlikely that it's a bug in the bsdsocket emulation, however.

Are you able to build UAE yourself? If so, in the file bsdsocket-posix.c 
change

//#define DEBUG_BSDSOCKET

to 

#define DEBUG_BSDSOCKET

and rebuild, to enable debug logging on the bsdsocket emulation. Redirect the 
output of UAE to a file, load up YAM and reproduce the bug, and then send me 
the output. 

If you are unable to do a build yourself, I can supply one with debugging 
enabled.

I haven't been working on it recently myself.

Cheers,
