Yes, it is exactly as you described. Beside that I noticed that the beaming
drivers have very likely timing problems. If I beam from a MP2100 to a MP120
or 130 beaming fails on larger objects like packages after a few kB have
been transmitted. The moment of error is unpredictable. However, if I freeze
nearly everything beaming works. It seems that especially the '61 bug fix
and Avi's backdrop do beam-disturbing background tasks. I notice also that
beaming from the MP120 to the MP2100 resulted in binary crap appended to
names at arbitrary locations and causing NCU backup to fail with error -1.
