12.4.(15)T is known to be affected by a variety of security problems, for
which cisco TAC will provide free upgrades - assuming they are available
for that platform. This is regardless of the support situation for the device.
Perhaps if they fixed their security problems with an upgrade, the newer
software image might be more tolerant to strange asn32 attributes?
