On October 22 I submitted a long bug report under the above subject line. In the absence of any response, I decided to try fixing the bug by adding a call to artclose() at the very end of kill_unwanted(). This does appear to do the trick, and I have not observed any new problem created by the change. However, as I said before, there is much in the code that I don't understand, and I certainly don't state definitively that this is the correct fix. -- Mark Brader "People with whole brains, however, dispute Toronto this claim, and are generally more articulate msb@vex.net in expressing their views." -- Gary Larson ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
