 I submitted a later version of the port that disabled the stripping.
 I'm attaching it here again just to be sure.

 I was just following the author's advice.  He suggested minimal or no
 optimizations for now.

 Yes, it's still very beta, but quite usable.  It has the distinction of
 having a nice GUI, and supporting multiple servers, with multiple
 connections to each server, so it's very fast.

 My ISP, Cox, for instance, allows us 4 connections to each of their 3
 news servers, which are unfortunately bandwidth-throttled, so this
 program is *really* handy.  I can now download binaries in a reasonable
 amount of time, and easily fill the "pipe" using a total of 12
 connections.  Most excellent!

 I've been using it for a while now and it's working quite well.  I'll be
 staying in contact with the author (who's very friendly and helpful), so
 as new versions become available, the port will be updated pronto.

 Give it a try and I'm sure you'll be impressed with it.  :-)

 I do hope you'll consider it for inclusion in the collection.

 Thanks.
