If I were through that I would file bug report, but one needs to read the rules of filing bug reports carefully first. As you don't want to give programmers bogus something that is not related to their software. First: one has to find simple way to reproduce the problem. It shouldn't be unique to that particular box. As if, say, some crippled external for that software library is what is to blame on faulty box, then it is not bug in this software. Anyway, I would read the whole good memo on how to file bug report. Then, it will require to do all on your side to make sure it is not bogus. But if indeed it is due to some bug, you will be doing great service to others (code maintainers will also be grateful!) Thanks.
