Can you determine why this is happening?  I'm looking at the code and I 
can't imagine why struct_buffer wouldn't compile complete on any given 
platform, much less why your compiler is munging the `shutdown' element 
into `_shutdown'.  Perhaps checking diffs of the relevant sources 
between 1.11 and 1.11.5 would help?
