</div>I opened my case with TAC last week and asked for it to be escalated to<br>
the DE folks. My TAC engineer ran the case up the flagpole for me and<br>
this issue is now acknowledged to be and is officially logged as a bug.<br>
The BugID is CSCsz85597.<br>

<br>
My engineer suggested downgrading to the latest 8.0.4 interim release as<br>
a temporary workaround while the DE folks address the bug and work it<br>
into a maintenance release, hopefully for 8.2. It should be a really<br>
simple fix so hopefully it doesn't take too long. The engineer said<br>
that at least one other person is now attached to this bug and they too<br>
were running RANCID.<br>
