Update: The SET_PERSONALITY fix in rc4 has _not_ been included in the final 2.4.18 by mistake. final: - No changes have been made between -final and -rc4. 2.4.18 final is really -rc3 the -rc4 patch wasn't included in the final tarball. -- "After I bit the head off the bat, the animal rights people came after me every night. Probably right after they finished eating their Colonel Sande or whatever, telling me I shouldn't be biting the heads off bats. I'll tell you what bats taste like.
