You mention two problems:
(1) You loose traps.
Hard to say what the problem is here. It is possible to increase
the receive buffers using setsockopt() under Unix - not sure
whether this would work the same way under Win32. The other option
would be to buffer traps internally before processing them. On the
other hand, sending traps in bulk is not guaranteed to work over
UPD/IP and so a sender who does it is taking risks anyway.
(2) You get a GPF.
This is definately a bug. I don't run scotty on Win32 and so I
rely on Win32 folks who experience the problem to dive into it and
to identify the core of the problem.
