there appears to be a fuck up backporting a security fix from svn. I will back out some of the changes when I have time - but why are local controls going through the netcode ???

Answer:
They are rebound packets. Due to all player input being funneled through the old DOOM concept of ticcmds, local input is packed into a ticcmd which is then rebounded back to the server. This is so there is a unified pipeline so that all player input arrives into the server-side playsim from one location.
The implementation of this will change in the (upcoming) unified client<>server model (no more ticcmds, only world & player events).

That suddenly causes the bug to make more sense, particularly with how I backported the svn fix. I'll have it fixed soon. I'll roll out the fixes with an updated set of fixes for https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=542099&aid=1793702&group_id=74815
