[smokeping-users] Slave loss computation broken?

Take a look at the attached graph from a smokeping slave. Although there
clearly are more than two dozen periods of packet loss, the legend says
0.00% for avg/max/min/now packet loss. I've not seen this for any master
graphs.
Out of 30 slave graphs, only 8 or so show the problem, but the probe in
question is always AnotherDNS with a record type of MX. Not all probes
of this type exhibit the problem. E.g. for one particular probe:
- overview/3h/30h graph wrong
- 10day/400day graph correct (non-zero loss)
All graphs based on a plain DNS probe seem to be correct.
Config:
+ AnotherDNS
offset = 50%
step = 300
pings = 5
+++ FOO_DNS_MX
probe = AnotherDNS
menu = foo_dns_mx
title = DNS MX on FOO
host = 1.2.3.4
lookup = bar.company.com
recordtype = MX
slaves = host.sub.company.com
smokeping 2.4.1
rrdtool 1.2.27 (1.3 doesn't build on RHEL3)
