Jon, Sorry for neglecting this until it's now ancient history, but you mentioned earlier that "The print out shows a bug in the code (which I will push in a second version of the patch shortly)." I don't see a second version; did I miss it? If we still need a fix here, can you re-post the three patches in this series?
