Nothing current, it ended up spread out over a bunch of cases which all
got closed with no real resolution to the root problem. Everyone I've
talked to at Juniper knows that the problem exists, they just don't know
why, and I don't know of any currently ongoing effort to fix it. Maybe
it's time we all get organized and start raising the attention level for
this very serious issue.
