This is not a problem caused by the dual_trx branch. POWEROFF has
never been implemented in _any_ branch. It has been always been dummy
command since the first OpenBTS release. The dual_trx branch does
maintain slightly stricter state variables in order to manage shared
resource control, and may return more error conditions (instead of
ignoring them). That's the likely the cause of different behaviour.

Yes, as you know, it's a major problem and the transceiver code
doesn't release resources in a sane way. Shutdown is broken, and it
always has been.

I will do that.
