It is not clear to me exactly what is broken.  I have seen problems
reported but as far as I know they were all IPSEC related, and I
have not seen a trace of trouble in my use with GBDE.

I'm not saying that the driver is _not_ broken, but it is certainly
not known to me to be broken for the use Michael asked about.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
