There have been a very large number of changes to bat from 5.0.x to 5.2.0,
including new features, bug fixes, and particularly seg fault fixes. I am
sorry, I don't remember the specifics, and since I did not explicitly
reproduce the reported bug, I am not sure there is an explicit fix, but I
think so.

There were a lot of changes, and I believe we have a significant number in the
Director too, so any backporting might not be easy. You are free to try
backporting but it is not something that I am personally going to do.

I don't know as I haven't explicitly reproduced the reported bug.

OK. I am not sure what your procedure is -- it might be good to note "fixed
in 5.2.x" providing that is really the case.
