can't normal parse HEX files

Binary package hint: fxload

Description: Ubuntu 8.04.1

I was expecting a normal firmware uploading, using a EZ-USB second stage loader (located in: /usr/share/usb/a3load.hex, this file comes with this package).
My command-line parameters:
fxload -vvvv -D /dev/bus/usb/002/036 -I inner_fw.hex -t fx2 -s /usr/share/usb/a3load.hex

In result I see only first code-line of loader's firmware with "record too short?" error:

root@grabber:/usr/src/usb-cpu# fxload -vvvv -D /dev/bus/usb/002/036 -I inner_fw.hex -t fx2 -s /usr/share/usb/a3load.hex
microcontroller type: fx2
1st stage: load 2nd stage loader
open RAM hexfile image /usr/share/usb/a3load.hex
stop CPU

record too short?
unable to download /usr/share/usb/a3load.hex

But HEX-file is correct, so there is bug in string length counting, so i presented little patch to correct this bug
