Okay, I'll reboot/install this before I leave today.

Hey, wait, it's 3:30AM.  Almost time to leave.  :-)

Thanks for the patch.  I'll let you know what happens with it.  It was
getting a bit irritating...  I'm using a serial console and during very
heavy message-spews, the machine seems to "freeze" for seconds at a time
and I'm pretty sure its because the system is waiting for the 9600 baud
console to print.  I've got a whole different set of complaints about the
serial console handling, oh well.

Have a good one,

... JG
