unstable proxy

Hi,

I start a dbiproxy with the following command. I checked that 3333 is
free. My questions are:

- Where does the intriguing port 3209 value below comes from? It is
incremented by 1 at every call of the client. Is it relevant or is
that a well-known problem?

- I could not find the log file anywhere. Would its creation be
skipped for some reason?

- Would these be fixed in later versions?

Running a remote client executing no or a single SQL statement at port
3333 is accepted by the proxy, as the printout below says (although
the port is wrong). It sometimes crashes without warning.

I tested the same code code earlier locally with DBI:Oracle and it
runs fine.
