Bug Description
The version of send_nsca in Quantal and Raring bumped the max command output length to 4096 (up from 512). When received by the server, this gets truncated at 512 bytes. This makes the CRC32 check fail.
The newer nsca versions have code to detect this difference and can deal perfectly well with clients with either setting, but older servers don't work with newer clients.
