--- Comment #7 from Mark B <mark.blakeney at bullet-systems.net> ---
I applied the new patch and confirmed it fixes this issue. I actually switched
back and forth a few times between my master and patch branches to confirm the
problem was still there and found it actually occurs about 1 in 15 times with
me opening and closing (alt+f4) the skype window repeatedly. I did it a hundred
or so times with the new patch branch and the fault never occurs.

When I look at the new patch I see that the clientGone test has been removed
from sync_callback() compared to the original patch. That's good to prove the
new changes still address the issue but personally I would be more at ease if
that clientGone check was still included for the final release patch. It's a
one-liner check, costs nothing, and assures ultimate protection.
