I understand what you mean... But the whole idea of 'temporary' fixes does
not look good for me. What if your sources tree become more and more
incompatibile with CVS Turbine, and you have to seek and undo your fixes
when things get done right in Turbine? I believe that this is wrong approach.
You should always strive to get to the cause of the problem. Even if you
find something that looks like it was designed wrong, you can ask the list
why things are done this way.
We appreciate your willingness to help, just the solutions you proposed were
classified to be worse than the problem itself ;-).
