Cannot merge 2 computers in the \"Your Computers\" page.

See http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/hosts_user.php?userid=353238

They are the pair of stepping 7 quads (the other stepping 11 quad is a different machine).
Have tried the 2 merge methods. Using the \"Merge computers by name\" option at the foot of the above page, the response is -

Processing MI1
Warning: Missing argument 3 for hosts_compatible(), called in /var/www/boinc/projects/cpdnboinc/html/inc/host.inc on line 409 and defined in /var/www/boinc/projects/cpdnboinc/html/inc/host.inc on line 317

Can\'t merge host 865573 into 866377 - they\'re incompatible


Applied the XP SP3 update to the machine today so now we have one of the pair\'s OS description updated leaving the \"ghost\" one still at SP2.

The SP3 machine seems to be the \"live\" one (as far as CPDN is concerned (i.e. its \"last contact\" date gets updated) but the 4 active models are all listed
(with correct trickled data) in the ghost SP2 version! This problem existed before the SP3 update.

Am I stuck with this problem or is there any workaround?

Never had merge issues before recent server software upgrade - e.g. after a BOINC folder restore.
When this happens now (or after swapping folders between machines), the BOINC client generates a new id but is ignored by the server.

P.S. I posted this issue in the CPDN forum, a few days ago, in an old but related thread. Apologies for repeating the question here.
