Ok, that makes sense.

I'll be trying that tonight... unfortunately, weekend is over and there
are other things to patch.

Yeah, I didn't know that. But as I responded to that private email,
make check works, even with nothing changed. So I'm at a bit of a loss,
but will fiddle around with it tonight.

No worries... if I had gotten you to do it, how would I learn? Half the
reason I decided to venture out into my own distro has to learn more
(and that, at least, has succeeded quite well). I can't *always* have
people doing things for me... =)
Might take a bit longer, but the hints work well enough for me.
