Thank you for reporting this. It has been corrected and is available in 
the release candidate in the test branch.

As for $DXProt::pc92_slug_changes = 0,  where you are in control of the 
connections from your web system, this probably makes no real 
difference. This is there to discourage the annoying habit of certain 
user program "sniping" a spot into the system. When it was written 
senderverify wasn't a usable thing - which now, likely, has the same 
effect, but puts the onus on one's node partners to deal with the spot. 
"PC92_slug_changes" puts a delay in such that the PC92 A can go out 
before the spot. This was because certain actors thought it a jolly jape 
to send any old spot out - scot free and unaccountably.  Personally, I 
would leave a small value in there to make sure that the PC92 A still 
goes out before the spot.
