This smells like a mis-match between the message-size configured
in bbgen, and the message size your bbd daemon accepts. If bbgen
sends messages larger than what the daemon accepts, the messages
will be truncated. This can cause random purples, depending on
how the test results get combined when they are sent to the bbd.

So lookup the MAXLINE setting in the $BBHOME/src/bb.h file. Then
check if it matches the MAXMSG setting reported by 
"bbtest-net --version". If not, change one of them so that they
match (for bbgen, change it in the top-level Makefile, then
run "make clean; make; make install").

Henrik
