This is a copy of mail sent to original bug reporter and Justin who
marked this bug as security.  (I had wrong bug number in original mail.)
================================================================
Hi,

Justin, a missing download is a headache but not a security hole .... I
do not see the reason for this bug to be labeled as important and
security.  Can someone elaborate? (Pointer to some document is fine.) 

I also re-read this bug report:
   http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=7;bug=645234

I see:
  [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]

This may be the reason why I am not getting this bug.  Any pointer to
this trick and resolution method will help.

Also, upstream BTS has:
  
http://alioth.debian.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=313564&group_id=100070&atid=413085
  [#313564] An order violation which may cause a dead loop(sometimes crash)
This goes over how to reproduce it by forcing specific timing:
  How to reproduce: add sleep(50); before axel.c:538 conn->last_transfer = 
gettime(); (axel-2.4)

Are these related?

Regards,

Osamu
