Does anyone out there know what causes the IPLISTENER breaks when the TIMER
field has a negative value in the TIMEXPIRED? frame ??

All my D-machines (all running Koto) seems to break at the same time.  When I
backtraced it, the TIMEXPIRED? frame has TIMER as -36528 (or some other large
negative numbers) assigned.  Also, in the \IPLISTENER frame, the
\AR.WAKEUP.TIMER is also assigned with a negative value (e.g. -636611).

Also, in the \AR.UPDATE.RESOLUTION frame, I've ARENTRY assigned to
{ARENTRY}#64,134666

It seems that somehow the timer in Koto is seriously screwed, causing havoc to
IP and ARP.

If anyone know what causes this and/or know any workarounds, I'll be most
grateful.

thanks.
