Silc Toolkit 1.1.7 incorrect signature in debug mode

[Brian Reed]

Hi,

I have been upgrading a SILC chat client that is based on the SILC
toolkit to the latest version of the toolkit.  It has been working
fine with the last version of the toolkit, but for security/stability
reasons I would like to put the latest versions of the toolkit into
it. I compiled the toolkit dlls in Debug mode first and tried to use
them in the chat client, but got the error message :
"Error Incorrect signature (9) received during key exchange"

I thought that was pretty weird since it hadn't ever happened before,
so I went ahead and compiled again in Release mode and ran the client
again. This time it connected just fine. The only difference between
the client connecting and failing to connect was that I grabbed the
Release vs. Debug versions of the toolkit dlls. Is there something I'm
missing here?
The chat client is written in C++ and runs on Windows XP. I compiled
the source using MSVS2005 Professional Edition.

Thanks for your help,
Brian
