It looks to me that there is logic to update the current serial # (data[3]) in related property but nothing to update the old serial # (data[1]). On the other hand, if you polled the property, it does get the real time value for data[3]. So that probably explains strange combination of behavior your see. I think a big improvement in behavior will occur if you modify wcmXCommand.c::serialTimerFunc() to update both old_serial and cur_serial. In addition, a nice cleanup would be to update wcmXCommand.c::wcmUpdateSerial() to set old_serial = cur_serial when it see's current serial # changing to 0. And then to delete that same line in wcmSendEvents() where its calling wcmUpdateSerial(0). I do not have a device that reports serial #'s so I have a hard time helping out with patches in this area.
