There should be firmware available, as hinted in the Service Bulletin. A
few users have already been provided with firmware, but you need to
contact Symmetricom.
As for the actual fix, it is not that big modification, but that assumes
you have the source and means to compile it. Symmetricom has all that.
If you go back in time you will find an email-thread on this particular
issue.
Cheers,
Magnus
