Indeed. It was assumed Proxy-State can always be added if it is turned
on for the next hop server, AuthBy etc.

Yes, adding new code solves this. Relying on Proxy-State being available
would have been nice but that will not work.

Does anyone know if creating secondary, tertiary, ... TCP connections
has worked fine? I'm thinking of the alternatives at hand: sticking with
Proxy-State extented IDs (using one TCP connection) or using the port
numbers (multiple TCP connections) for ID space extension?

Thanks for your input!
