Ok who broke the server!
Turns out I did. The patched "getblockbycount" branch does not compile with the newer miniupnpc versions, so I'm basically stuck here. If anyone can fix it, it's cool. Since I didn't get any feedback about pident in the last few weeks, I thought nobody was really using it anyway
(And, of course, merging the old getblockbyhash branch in the new tree fails. And I'm not that great with C++.)
