Excellent! Please try out 2.44test1, in the usual place. But be 
cautious, I've not been able to test it at all whilst at the end of a 
cellphone link. I believe this fixes Carlos's problem, another I found 
by inspection, and it also changes the random-port selection code. The 
last change means that others using port randomisation could usefully test.

The DHCP bugs were introduced in 2.43 in the  RFC 5107 
server-id-override stuff.

Details in changelog.

Cheers,

Simon.
