Actually. I _do_ understand. But I _completely_ understand how
you would arrive at your conclusion. I hit this port too late in
the day, and in _too_ big a hurry. I just submitted a patch that I
am confident addresses all of the previous issues this port had.
IMHO I think it is also cleaner that the one just submitted before
mine. :)

Thanks, John, and sorry for all the bother.
