I think this patch should be implemented. One word of caution should be made to porters that they need to remember the order in which patches are run; if there's more than one patch across these categories for the same file, they have to do the diffs in the same order that the patches will be made. Or else there may be conflicts (maybe not, depending on where the patches go). -- Will Andrews <andrews@technologist.com> GCS/E/S @d- s+:+>+:- a--->+++ C++ UB++++ P+ L- E--- W+++ !N !o ?K w--- ?O M+ V-- PS+ PE++ Y+ PGP+>+++ t++ 5 X++ R+ tv+ b++>++++ DI+++ D+ G++>+++ e->++++ h! r-->+++ y?
