I'm trying to debug and patch the UHD stack for USRP1 with DBS-RX

UHD list no action has been taken to fix the regression.
I was able to reproduce the regression issue with DBS-RX on my own
ancient USRP1 hardware, and it has been reported. But I don't know
how much engineering bandwidth will be devoted to fixing it. The
regression goes back a few UHD release versions--I didn't go all the way
"back in time" to figure out where it happened, but it isn't just
with the latest release :(
There's another module that had a similar problem, let's see, UHD Github
Issue #304. I filed my issue as issue #394. It seems to be a similar
issue with a simila construct; my C++ skills aren't keen enough to fix
it myself, because the patch that fixed #304 was not obvious to me. But
I'm not very experienced with C++ (regular C, some, Python a bit more,
Z80 assembly language a whole lot (fat lot of good that language will do
for me, right? :-) )). Someone who knows the code could probably fix it
in less than an hour. Given enough time I can learn what the difference
in the RFX code was and apply a similar patch to the DBS-RX code, just
haven't had enough time to dig in to it yet; I figure it will take me,
since I'll have to do a whole lot of reading to understand the
constructs in this code first, four to eight hours. Just hasn't gotten
back to the top of the pile yet.
Anyway, thanks for confirm my issue isn't local to me, by the way.
