If you believe this is a better patch, please feel free to check this
into both branch/trunk and I'll release another candidate for testing
(with some other patches as well).

It would be even better if folks could test this patch prior to the
check-in so we know for sure this works fine on Intel/ppc Mac OSX.

Cheers,
