Ok, I was about to send you the code of my modified 
vortex-simple-{listener,client}.c and in the way, instead of copying it from 
my laptop to this machine, I opted to re-code it, as  simple as possible... 
and the problem didn't show. Weird, I think at first... but further 
inverstigation shows that what triggers the problem is the size of reply 
message sent from server to client in frame_receive()!

In my software I was using "1", and when I did my first test, also used it... 
However, when coding the exactly same thing, in order to keep patch small, I 
left it "Received OK: ..."... and the problem goes away!

Attached file patches both vortex-simple-{client,listener}.c and you can 
undefine NO_BUG in listener to get the bug.

Can you fix it?

Thanks!
