*GRIN* Honestly - I keep running into the same thing every time I start 
a new up/downstream pair. Caveat: Because I was part of the discussion 
on the naming, I actively think "don't get this the wrong way around" 
and proceed to do exactly that :)

Again, I think this is a good case for having some debug-level warning 
mechanism where zeromq can provide more feedback when compiled with 
-DEBUG or something.

You'd have two copies of the zeromq library on your system, libzmq.a and 
libzmqdebug.a ... the options to build the latter would turn on the 
warning feedback system, so that more verbose output could be supplied 
when these kinds of issues occur. Great help for beginners and old hands 
alike.
