            <thetext>Since I emerged it, iwevent dumps core on every event, also, iwlist eth1 scanning produces buggy output, with &quot;Unknown/Bug&quot; in the ESSID place, etc.

Not sure what&apos;s going on, but _pre17 looks buggy



Reproducible: Always

            <thetext>     Hi,

     It&apos;s all my fault, please blame me.
     Here is the deal. I don&apos;t have any 64 bit platform. A few weeks ago, a bug on PPC64 with 32 bit userspace was reported. I attempted to fix it. Well, it now seems obvious that I broke AMD64.
     First, I would like to thank you for the bug report. Good bug report are what helps us make good progress ;-)

     I&apos;ve just uploaded a new version of WT, 29-pre18. It does not fix the problem, on the other hand &apos;iwlist scan&apos; should printout some information useful for me to diagnose the issue and devise a fix.
     Just compile, run &apos;iwlist scan&apos; and tell me what it says...

     Sorry again for the breakage...

     Jean

            <thetext>      Hi,

      After a few debugging sessions with Roy (thanks for his help), I think I understand what&apos;s happening, and I think I have a fix for it. I&apos;ve uploaded a new version, 29-pre19, that should have the fix.
      You are welcomed to test and report ;-)

      Thanks again for your patience...
