Does this seem reasonable? BTW: I've also patched in pthreads support. I sent Torrey Lyons the patch for this a month or so ago, and he said it was too late to make it into 4.2. I'm testing it right now - if it behaves itself I'll commit the new packages to unstable by the end of the day so you can try it out. Or would you rather I just email you the packages so you can merge in whatever changes you have made? Regards, Jeff -- Jeffrey S.
