[Olsr-dev] Topology inconsistency?

Hi list,

on my testbench I have 3 radios running OLSR on vxWorks with the following
configuration:

Node19 <-------------> Node6 <---------------->Node12
    /\
|
     |________________?_________________|

If all nodes see each other everything works fine. But if I increase
attenuation between 19 and 6 and
between 6 and 12 so that 12 should only see 19 via hop through 6 a topology
entry 12 to 19 stays in
the topology entry list (only one direction, from node12 to node 19?).

See the JPGs (See attached file: topo_19.JPG) and (See attached file:
topo_12.JPG)

Also in debug output the topology entry stays in the list:
--- 00:00:00.61 ------------------------------------------------- TOPOLOGY

Source IP addr  Dest IP addr    LQ     ILQ    ETX
192.168.100.6   192.168.100.12   1.000  1.000  1.00

Routing works fine. The kernel route 19<->12 is deleted and transmission
runs via 6 but the (wrong?) topology entry stays forever.
Did anyone discover the same problem?
If this topology entry is correct, should'nt then be an asym neighbors
entry in the olsr data structure?
I wonder wether I have a crosstalk problem on my bench?
