Ok, I get that too.  First thing I notice is that some connections are  
failing.  It looks like perhaps drum_module.pd used to have two  
outlets, but now it does not.  Does this happen for you?  Does this  
trigger the bug?

drummer_main.pd 48 0 0 0 (canvas->message) connection failed
drummer_main.pd 49 0 42 0 (canvas->message) connection failed
drummer_main.pd 50 0 32 0 (canvas->message) connection failed
drummer_main.pd 50 1 34 0 (canvas->message) connection failed
drummer_main.pd 50 1 22 0 (canvas->unpack) connection failed
drummer_main.pd 51 0 31 0 (canvas->message) connection failed
drummer_main.pd 52 0 26 0 (canvas->unpack) connection failed
drummer_main.pd 52 1 35 0 (canvas->message) connection failed
drummer_main.pd 52 1 45 0 (canvas->unpack) connection failed
drummer_main.pd 53 0 37 0 (canvas->message) connection failed
drummer_main.pd 53 1 36 0 (canvas->message) connection failed

But yes, I get the issue that you are talking about, I'll dig deeper.
