[Berasategui Velasco, Asier]

Here is the complete error message:

Assertion failed: msg_->flags & ZMQ_MSG_MORE (req.cpp:87)

I don't have more information yet.
I will continue looking for more info about this issue.

Thanks

Yes. That's possible. The other option is that it's a bug that was
solved in newer versions of 0MQ, but given that you are generating the
wire format yourself, I would bet on the former to be true.

It would help if you've pasted the filename&lineno for the assertion.

Anyway, the assertion complains about not seeing the MORE flag (see
zmq_tcp(7)) where it is expected to be seen. Presumably, the backtrace
stack in request/reply pattern is malformed.
