P2pool becomes incompatible with some miners. Even with Stratum mining-proxy itself!
Look at Ztex BTCMiner log:
001-0: ztex_ufm1_15y1-04A3461AD9-3: Error: unknown protocol: localhost: Disabling URL localhost:9332 for 60s
It cannot connect to p2pool and switching to backup pool
Stratum-mining-proxy reports:

And it's not working, miner connected to this stratum-mining-proxy cannot get any work (proxy spits out thousands of errors) and switching to backup pool.
With new version 10, P2pool become unusable for both miners I am using - Ztex BTCMiner and Stratum mining proxy.
