The version you are referring to is actually the original version of
netcat:
  http://nc110.sourceforge.net/
The GNU netcat should be a fully compatible rewrite:
  http://netcat.sourceforge.net/
According to the changelog the UDP issue should have been fixed in 0.7.1:
 
http://netcat.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/netcat/netcat/ChangeLog?revision=1.80&view=markup

It would be best if the issue were reported upstream and fixed there.
