Ryan,

That's great to hear. We've got too much going on to test this right 
now--we're going with the patch I forwarded for our upcoming release. But 
right after that I will try this out. We still have some PowerPC users to 
support, so I'll let you know how that goes too.

Thanks for spending time on what must seem old and broken after working on 
1.3 :)
