*shrug* You have a point, Lars has a point. If it were not freezing I'd go for a "proper fix". Actually, I don't think your fix (ugly or not) would hurt right now, but if we start putting patches that big in again, we won't have a 1.2 in the next century. Right now I consider 1.2 as a "release for the masses" (i.e. text-only people) and there is enough wrong with the math stuff that I'd expect "heavy math users" to switch to 1.3 CVS anyway. So I'd just leave it as it is and press for a short 1.3 cycle... Andre' -- Those who desire to give up Freedom in order to gain Security, will not have, nor do they deserve, either one. (T.
