Keep in mind that the configure scripts have been upgraded to 2.57 in CVS HEAD, which will be 1.1.0 sooner or later (hopefully sooner ^_^) and this may already be fixed in CVS head. > Oh, and I'm sure Alan wouldn't say "no" to patches if you already have > some fixes... ;-) I'm happy to look at patches for 1.0.2 (everyone's talking about 1.0.1 here, I'm not taking patches for _that_) to fix this, unless we already did so between 1.0.1 and 1.0.2. But unless they're obviously safe, I'll need a hand testing them on various interesting implementations to be sure everything still works no worse than 1.0.2. And if we're lucky, there won't be a pressing need for 1.0.3 before 1.1.0 ships. -- Paul "TBBle" Hampson, on an alternate email client. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
