    _______________________________________________________

Details:

There are many torrent files now that only contain 'announce-list', not
'announce' field (most created with new uTorrent versions).
Mldonkey handles multiple trackers nice, but 
one internal assertion fails on such files, preventing
download.

3.0.0-3 from squeeze is also affected.

Here is a working patch for this, and a couple of test torrents.
