It will probably help, since the problem has been with multiple
gateways, and no (fake) gateway should be fine.

I was looked at testing the patch, but I find it difficult to apply to
the Debian package, which does not appear to use any patch system?!

Taking the commit might be OK, but does not appear to be required,
because it should be fixed with the typo being fixed (when unblocked).

Given the impact of this commit I would tend to not push this - at least
while completely untested (in the context of the other patches etc).
Besides, I would like to see an update with all the little things being
fixed for/in 3.0.25 - this does not seem to be likely for squeeze, even
when being released in the next days AFAICS?! - or is there something
like freeze exceptions in Ubuntu?


Cheers and thanks,
Daniel
