For me, it's 2.0.1 as found in Debian.  Note that it fails equally well
when using the `NULL' compression method, so the issue is probably not
related to compression.

Unfortunately, I'm unable to provide a simple test case that reproduces
the problem.  My setup involves at least one Nokia N770/N800 device (an
ARMEL thingie).  Running the same code (client + server) on x86 doesn't
yield any error.

Thanks,
Ludovic.
