[smc] You patch the source code to fix it and recompile CVS.
Here's a patch (same as I submitted to [EMAIL PROTECTED] some
time ago... I have gotten exactly zero feedback, positive or
negative, and I didn't do a _whole lot_ ot testing, but I think it
works right.) If you try it, and it you find problems, or find that
it works great, let me know.
