SMPP reconnection on invalid username/password

Hi,

I've been experiencing problems where kannel at some time no longer 
attempts to reconnect a gateway, which is down. Here's what basically 
happens (gateway name and address is replaced with fake name/address):

ERROR: System error 111: Connection refused
ERROR: error connecting to server `1.2.3.4' at port `2775'
ERROR: SMPP[gateway]: Couldn't connect to server.
ERROR: SMPP[gateway]: Couldn't connect to SMS center (retrying in 10 
seconds).
ERROR: connect failed
ERROR: System error 111: Connection refused
ERROR: error connecting to server `1.2.3.4' at port `2775'
ERROR: SMPP[gateway]: Couldn't connect to server.
ERROR: SMPP[gateway]: Couldn't connect to SMS center (retrying in 10 
seconds).
WARNING: SMPP: PDU NULL terminated string has no NULL.
ERROR: SMPP[gateway]: SMSC rejected login to transmit, code 0x0000000f 
(Invalid System ID).
ERROR: SMPP[gateway]: I/O error or other error. Re-connecting.

Although kannel claim to be reconnect when the login was invalid, this 
never occurs. The thread terminates, but bearerbox still report the 
state of the gateway as "reconnecting".

When examining the code, it is very obvious that the SMPP gateway code 
is meant to terminate when login is rejected:


gateway/gw/smsc/smsc_smpp.c:1468
                 if (pdu->u.bind_transmitter_resp.command_status == 
SMPP_ESME_RINVSYSID ||
                     pdu->u.bind_transmitter_resp.command_status == 
SMPP_ESME_RINVPASWD)
                     smpp->quitting = 1;


gateway/gw/smsc/smsc_smpp.c:1488
                 if (pdu->u.bind_transceiver_resp.command_status == 
SMPP_ESME_RINVSYSID ||
                     pdu->u.bind_transceiver_resp.command_status == 
SMPP_ESME_RINVPASWD)
                     smpp->quitting = 1;


Is this really intentional? And if so, isn't it then wrong to say claim 
that kannel will reconnect?
