This is definitely the root of the problem.

Or it could be something else.

Just to confirm: with the slrnpull from 0.9.6.2 all works perfectly for
me.  Looking at your headers I can make a guess as to the version you're
using, I'll see if I can find a copy and try that instead.

Other things which might have a bearing are your slrnpull.conf and maybe
the header files when your version was built.  Does the slrnpull log
file give any further clues?
