[Xastir] Objects issue?

I have been playing with xastir lately, and besides noticing the  
newest development version crashing everytime I change settings on  
interfaces. I have tested this with recent stable and development  
versions.

Since xastir won't let me define a different path for objects than the  
normal one, I started using beacon to send them instead. Beacon has  
been working well, and very predictable. It sends the following  
packet, that is then digipeated:

ax0: fm K3PDK-1 to BEACON via N3KTX-4 N3KTX-2 ctl UI^ pid=F0(Text) len 62
0000  ;147.06FDK*111111z/:PxO:sLerHHQT123 R40+ ARES M730p Net Th830p

ax0: fm K3PDK-1 to BEACON via N3KTX-4* N3KTX-2 ctl UI^ pid=F0(Text) len 62
0000  ;147.06FDK*111111z/:PxO:sLerHHQT123 R40+ ARES M730p Net Th830p


The issue is (I believe) since I am using the same from callsign in  
xastir and beacon cause it's the ax25 default for the kiss port, I  
think xastir object functions sees it and is attempting to take  
control of it, cause once xaster first sees this packet, I start  
getting the following transmitted, and in xastir it's listed under my  
objects:

ax0: fm K3PDK-1 to APX192 via WIDE2-2 ctl UI^ pid=F0(Text) len 72
0000  ;147.06FDK*290234z/:PxO:sLer   /A=001299T123 R40+ ARES M730p Net
0040   Th830p.

I have attempted searching this list and couldn't find anything  
related. I attempted to search the source code for the issue, but I  
can't seem to locate the revelent parts of the code for incoming tnc  
packets.

Thanks.
