Yeah, I would be lying if I said that "that might not work" did not
bother me, but I decided it would be on the good side of the

ultra-verbose and precise).  As you may have guessed, they were
stolen from your earlier message that shows what the site says after

I will probably tag -rc4 with the patch applied sometime tomorrow.
