Ref: Bug#10052, BLF/Line status seems to be fixed for those that have
tried using the attached "notify.1_4_12.patch". This is a truly
trivial patch, which seems to solve a logic flaw (probably a typo from
long ago) which allows a list of outstanding NOTIFY packets to be
collected, but then never used.

The patch should port to 1.6.x very easily. I am using the 1.2.x
version of this patch on at least 30 sites now, and have seen no
problems.

OEJ seems to be proposing a larger fix which rationalises NOTIFY
transmissions, which is probably a "Very Good Thing(tm)", but IMHO
does not reduce the need to apply "notify.1_4_12.patch" to fix the
underlying problem.

Just my 2p
