Just want to let you know I haven't forgotten about this!!

The following came to my attention, concerning the code that I am using to
fix this issue:

http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/json/message/1183

I sent a message asking if Doug is planning on fixing the issue with the
suggested patch or not.  I will probably use the supplied patch to fix the
issue if he doesn't...

It only affects some obscure old versions of Opera, but I think we should
support as many browsers as possible...

At the moment, it doesn't seem like anyone is banging down the door for this
fix, but I still plan to get it checked in really soon!

Sorry for the delays...
