Changing register= statements to IP addresses is a bad idea. SIP is 
domain name based and (as proved by sipgate) an IP address points to 
*one* host, whereas a SIP domain by using SRV records can point to many 
IP addresses and servers. There's a huge difference between sending a 
REGISTER to username at 192.168.40.3 and username at domain

See this as a short time fix. We need to make a better solution on the 
REGISTER parsing to prevent this from happening, it's clearly a bug.
