Grumble, OK.  I guess I won't kill you then. :) Disgregard my previous
"dammit" on this one.  I went ballistic because I thought you were
getting into another one of your purist moods and were going to give
me broken releases while we played tug-of-war over your change - not a
very heartening scenario, to say the least.

Well, I guess I can interrupt the re-release build in progress.  It's
only 98% done. :) I've slid the tags for both and will re-roll.  I
sure hope this fixes the reported problems since we've pretty much run
out of testing time for the CD and if this turns out not to work, we're
going to have a raft of bug reports in about 6 weeks. :(
