It is just when I unplug one of cables of one of the three carp interfaces, sometimes not all are switched to master or backup, sometimes only one, or two. Well, if I had stopped my testing after the first three cable unpluggings, then everything were perfect, but some try later i noticed the interfaces became out of sync. that is my problem: http://www.countersiege.com/doc/ifstated/ and i cannot find anything in the changelogs... where it states it is fixed in 3.9.
