With mol-0.9.50-1, I found -- to my surprise --
that I can do netatalking such that one single
Mac looks to MacPing like two Macs:

Great. I had the impression from earlier mol versions,
that this was not possible.

Only on one occasion, MacOS running under MoL got stuck
with repeated messages on the calling console:
adb_key: buffer overflow

Anything I can do to avoid this?
