Unless somebody else volunteers, it's probably? up to Bernd (no
pressure!), so "when it's done"!   ;-)

BTW, it's been almost two months since you first mentioned this, so I
don't know what's up with Aitor, haven't heard from him. It's easy
(maybe too easy!) to forget little fixes when no one shows much
interest. I can only blindly guess that Aitor only has intermittent
access to the Internet these days. Oh well, blame real life (tm), this
isn't hugely urgent or important anyways.

Anyways, I figured I'd go ahead and upload this patch (and the FD Edit
one) to iBiblio for completeness. I mean, I don't know what else to
do, any better ideas??
