Known bug, reported YEARS ago:  See, for example:

   https://sourceforge.net/p/quickfix/mailman/message/35810081/

(This issue is discussed towards the end of the above thread, so don't
just look at the beginning.)

Solution:  Tell the QuickFIX maintainers to fix their code.


(I don't have anything to say about the other issues you raise.)


Good Luck!
