Jeff, thanks for that. Having seen a couple of patches fall into a black hole - and one recently get committed - it had been in the back of my mind to ask about attaching patches to a bug report. Now you've answered for me, I'll do that in future. Perhaps that should go into the developer docs? -- Nick Kew
