Congratulations. You definitely get a prize.

Haven't been able to reproduce this. I'll definitely keep trying though.

Right. That documentation is still for Beta3. We'll be transitioning
post ASCB in preparation for Beta4.

There are various tracing values that can be turned on for Ice, all of
which can set in your ice.config or on the command-line. For a
listing, see:

http://zeroc.com/doc/Ice-3.3.0/manual/PropRef.46.2.html

To see what properties your client has, you can use "omero.dump":

 DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$(LIBPATH)" ./client
 --Ice.Config=../omero/etc/ice.config --omero.dump=1

This may be a problem of relative paths and symlinks which might
_also_ be the problem with the library search path. Very interested to
find that out.
