Does this problem exist in Heartbeat 1.2.5? According to
http://lists.community.tummy.com/pipermail/linux-ha-dev/2006-August/013388.html (dated Aug 14, 2006) this problem is present in Heartbeat 1.2.3 and Alan wrote "> It's fixed in 1.2.4 If I recall correctly..." in this post.

But as in http://www.osdl.org/developer_bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1407
(dated Aug 16, 2006) it is mentioned that "This is at least the 3rd time
we've had this bug reported. Each time we thought we'd fixed it. In each
case so far we were wrong." I could image that this problem is still in
Heartbeat 1.2.5.

Unfortunately it would take me nearly 500 days to test it, so maybe
someone of the developers could say whether or not this problem is still
in Heartbeat 1.2.5.

If it is still in 1.2.5, are there plans for a 1.2.6 version which fixes
this problem?
