Unfortunately, I have not had any time to work on the patch this weekend.
However, despite the patch being a bit rough around the edges, I decided
to send it out (see below) to get some early feedback.

Note that it passes the t3210, t3211, t5500, t3200, t3301, t7606 and t1301
tests, but I have not run the full test suite.

Comments welcome.

ATB,
Ramsay Jones
