Your patch has been applied (change #19976) and it will be in 5.8.1. Regarding the other problems you quote on VMS: do yo really have to go on vacation? :-) Well, barring that: I would appreciate if couple of VMS people (well, as many as it takes) could spoil their weekend and hammer out fixes for these problems. I would really like to get Release Candidate One for 5.8.1 out soon.
