gift does nog give me a session id

When I request a new session id:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no" ?>
<!DOCTYPE mrml SYSTEM 
"http://www.mrml.net/specification/v1_0/MRML_v10.dtd">
<mrml>
	<open-session user-name="anonymous" 
session-name="monosock_default_session" />
</mrml>

Gift (0.1.13) gives me back a:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<mrml  just-for-test="and-of-course-for-fun" session-id="" >
     <cui-time-stamp  calendar-time="Thu Aug 25 16:41:14 2005" />
     <error  message="mIDToProxy _c-53-23-13-24-7-105-3-235-0_" />
     <cui-time-stamp  calendar-time="Thu Aug 25 16:41:14 2005" />
</mrml>

This is not very kind.

How do I solve this?
