Problem with running RFCOMM server on PORT_ANY on debian OS

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. run bluetooth-agent  on server host
2. rfcomm-server.py on server host
3. connect from another host using rfcomm-client.py 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
"Accepted connection from ..."

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.18 on Debian Wheezy (B3) using Python 2.6 or Python 2.7

Please provide any additional information below.

According the client I'm connected!:

$ python rfcomm-client.py XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
Searching for SampleServer on XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
connecting to "SampleServer" on XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
connected.  type stuff

However, rfcomm-server.py diagrees (accept() never returns) :

$ python2.6 rfcomm-server.py 
Waiting for connection on RFCOMM channel 1
(.... Nothing)
