Andreas,

thanks for integrating the mncc socket patch into lcr.

I would personally like to see the following improvements:
* add some (preferrable automatically computed) version to the mncc,
to make sure you cannot run lcr + bsc_hack built from a different mncc.h
file.  We could do something like a md5sum over the header at compilation
time, stored in both openbsc and lcr.  Once they connect the mncc socket,
they request the remote side md5-value and compare it with the local-side
value.  If they don't match, print an error message and exit the program.

* make the socket path configurable, which is required for running multiple
instances of openbsc+lcr on the same machine.

If you (or anyone else on this list) happens to have some time to work on
that, it would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
   Harald
