[PD-dev] [tcpserver]: new 'clientbuf' method seems to be buggy

[Roman Haefeli]

hi martin

i reckon, that you're working on tcpserver code these days, at least
when ever i update mrpeach from svn, the tcpserver.c file is updated. so
please tell me, if it makes sense at all to currently report bugs.

after having set the buffersize using the 'clientbuf' messages, message
to the client, for which the buffersize was set, are truncated. while
sending 30 byte messages, only 15 bytes are sent, respectively 15 bytes
are received on the client side.

please check the attached bug illustration patch
