Yes, I have changes to do with making restore from multiple storage daemons
work. I have already emailed the patch file to the list.
You can find it here: http://markmail.org/message/t2te5k45qmbr7ssv

The last time this was talked about, you gave me a list of six 'rather trivial
but essential modifications' that you wanted me to do (which I am finally
getting round to doing):
