I have an strace and tcpdump for a fetchmail run that produces the error.
I don't see any URG data in the dump.

The syslog shows (account name removed):
Mar  3 20:38:01 elrond fetchmail[10659]: 3 messages (1 seen) for xxxxxxx at 
pop.planet.nl (29679 octets).
Mar  3 20:38:01 elrond kernel: TCP(fetchmail:10659): Application bug, race in 
MSG_PEEK.
Mar  3 20:38:01 elrond fetchmail[10659]: reading message [email protected]:2 
of 3 (19564 octets) flushed
Mar  3 20:38:01 elrond fetchmail[10659]: reading message [email protected]:3 
of 3 (4644 octets) flushed

As the traces contain private data, I don't want to attach them in the
BR or publish them, but if people want to analyze them, please mail me
privately and I'll send you the data.

Cheers,
FJP
