Darius,

A solution is on the way.

Professor Kevin Hendricks of the college of William and Mary in
association with the Glyph have come up with a fix for this problem.

Unfortunately, none of our schedules have permitted us to generate a
fresh i386 build for release at this time. Please stay tuned!

At any rate, this is a great time to say "thank you" to Kevin for
these and many other fixes (which the PPC people can already use).
