I see this too, using the latest cvs version of the code.

I've been looking at the code for a while in the debugger and
so far I can't see how to fix this without major surgery :(
There seem to be many places where the code assumes
that the master and secondary will be in lock-step, which is
not always true for master/slave mode.
