I did try it to 11g (as I know that 11n wasn't supported before),
but it didn't help.

I did -not- try without ampdutx. I can try that, and I can also
try HEAD --- but that will take a little bit of time, as I will
need to do some reconfiguring of other things to ensure that my
systems are up and available while I'm testing.

I'll let you know when I have a chance to test.
