Ah, right. You'll also need to ensure that the initialisation order allows 
the engine to be properly initialised (including maybe some control 
commands to prepare anything the engine needs) *before* the key is 
loaded. I have a vague recollection that this isn't the case? Though I 
could be wide of the mark here.

I'd suggest you contact Joe Orton - in fact he's probably on this list 
too. If the 2.1 beta (and/or cvs HEAD) don't properly handle 0.9.8, then 
there's a problem.

Thanks :-)
