Problems with freeradius accounting proxy

[Phil Pierotti]

I've upgraded to 2.1.8 , and still the same.

Oddly enough, it says the *ACCT* port is zombie (which it isn't , we're
still seeing responses frequently).
*and* the "un-zombie" recovery does an AUTH, so there is no case where the
ACCT port will UN zombify.
