It's kind of a mystery without more debugging of what's the actual failure
being detected in BinkP.prototype.session or BinkP.prototype.connect in
load/binkp.js. Feel free to add some debugging if you want to find the issue,
but if all looks fine and packets/files are flowing, then you can probably
safely ignore the error as well.
