Please try this patch:

Thanks
1) I can see the difference
- for (a /= res; a % 10 != 0; a /= 10)
+ for (a /= res; a % 10 == 0; a /= 10)
but I'm just not that clever to apply a patch.
2) I touch'ed a dest file so it's got tomorrow's date, and cp -p still
copies to it, although not updating (downdating?) it's timestamp.
3) I also put the story on http://tuxera.com/forum/ as
[email protected] asked, so I spose [email protected] is not now
the place to look.
Must admit I haven't done all this before, so I don't want to put
something stupid all over the world.
