nsca packets disappear between xinetd and the daemon

I've got a system that accepts and processes nsca packets from a number of collectors successfully.
Everything is using nsca-2.7.2.

I added a new collector recently and it's not able to get data into the central nagios system via nsca.

I recompiled the send_nsca client with the DEBUG flag enabled and get this output, which looks good:

Connected okay...
Got init packet from server
Initialized encryption routines
Done sending data
1 data packet(s) sent to host successfully.
Cleaned up encryption routines

On the central server, the xinetd logs look like the packets are being accepted:

10/10/13 at 11:01:29: START: nsca from=<not working collector in question IP>
10/10/13 at 11:01:29: EXIT: nsca status=0

But then nothing seems to show up the nsca log. All the other collector's data logs in the nsca log very nicely.

Where should I look to debug my problem?
