Hello Sjoerd,
 Thanks for the patches. I've applied 1 and 2. But on 3 I cannot get
what was the issue that mandated the change. Why you need the user
length instead of the byte length?

I am also wondering why the test program mini-egain that forces the pull
function to return eagain now and then, it didn't trigger the errors you
see. How do you trigger those issues?

best regards,
Nikos
