The "hobbitd_client" status must be dropped manually. It usually
does not exist, it is only generated when the hobbitd_client program
crashes. You need to send a "drop" request to remove it:

  bb 127.0.0.1 "drop myhobbitserver hobbitd_client"


About the crash itself, this points to a bug in the bbwin-handler
of hobbitd_client. I haven't dug into it myself, but perhaps the
bbwin folks will provide a solution (they wrote the code) ...
