As you know, I did quite a bit of testing of these patches as they were under development, and they worked fine, and solved lots of problems. I'm not using them at the moment, as they don't seem to apply cleanly anymore. If you post updated patches, I'd happily volunteer to test them again. Or, if you're short of time, I'd even volunteer to try to fix them so they apply cleanly. If a few others would then try them out, and if there are no problems, maybe someone would be willing to commit them to -current? -- Richard Seaman, Jr. email: dick@tar.com 5182 N.
