asterisk users - Jan 2010 - Off-line subscribed phone amber on SPA942?

If xlite subscribes on a hint, and the phone is offline, xlite says so 
("not online")
If SPA942 does the same, the led is green for "available". The other 
hints work: blink red for ringing and red for busy.

I seem to remember the led once showed amber for subscribed phone offline.

The SPA extended function is "fnc=blf+sd+cp;sub=4 at my.sip.server"

Server type is asterisk
Share line apperarence is irrelevant, tried both options.

Asterisk version 1.6.0.18; latest available in  FreeBSD ports.
