Try uncommenting some of the fprintf's in igate.c:output_igate_net()
to see if that's the function that's doing it to you.  At least
uncomment the two nearest the beginning and end of the function.

It's possible that there are some malformed KISS packets that are
causing a problem, probably a buffer overrun.
