Bearerbox panic

Hi All,

We recently had a situation where one of the carriers we are connecting to (2 separate SMSC's) had some unspecified issue and reconnected, this however caused the following panic 
as one of the SMSC's had been turned off (upon communicating with the carrier it's been switched off for about a week, they are no longer supporting that service)

I would like to know if anyone can give me any indication as to why the failure occurred and what can be done about it.

The Kannel/host details are as follows
	Kannel bearerbox version `cvs-20060727'.
	Build `Aug 2 2006 12:31:01', compiler `3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)'.
