  Maybe upgraded libraries.  But still...

  I was part of there Merit consortium for a while.  We couldn't even get their new releases to *compile*.  That's why I got involved with Cistron, and then started FreeRADIUS.

  So you can blame Merit for all of this.

  Yeah.  Vendors don't like doing that, tho.

  RADIUS is a lot more complex than it used to be. :(
