Absolutely... - I've only been running current for about a month, but I had
a very good idea of what I was getting into (i.e. this sort of problem)

Very true, but it's still amazing the amount of people I see who say "I'm
running 3.0 on our [production] server...", very scary ;-)  We have 6
production boxes running 2.2.2 through 2.2.6 (which run perfectly) and my
own machine which runs 3.0, and runs perfectly - most the time, but enough
not to make me go and install it on all the other 6... <g>

I think the best thing we can probably do is let John get on with it in
peace... :-)
