Hi!
I pointed out this bug a few months ago. What is your ns
version ?.
Indeed, the bind is not done properly for the variable errPkt_.
Therefore, it happens that errPkt_ is not initialized properly resulting
in the following behavior : the first loss may not occur if errPkt_ took
accidently a large number at the beginning. Since, it is not initialized,
the value you start with is just random.
