I was not sure whether you wanted Kevin, me or both of us to try the
above, so I tried it anyway. :-)  It has no visible affect here at all.
I double checked I had patched the right file and even re-compiled
(after doing a rm -rf /usr/obj and a make clean) and re-installed the
resulting kernel.  No change.

Are there any debug messages I can enable to help you out here?


Cheers,
       Nick.
