Well, yes, it is exactly the same issue and it is indeed only one line
that gets lost (which in my case, where typically every host sends about
1 line/hour does not really make a difference).

Unfortunately, the previous discussion does not sound very promising.
Obviously there is no hope to get this fixed in 1.6.x...

How far from being ready for production use is 1.9.x?

Maybe I should go back to using udp instead, which is by definition
unrealiable, but in this case probably would still yield a higher
success rate?
