Guys, guys... Take 'er easy.
All I asked is what it is, what it does, and the ramifications. Thank you
both for enlightening me. Really. No sarcasm.
If none of the three of us are going to fix it, but we all have opinions
on how to deal with with, let's just be tolerant of those opinions, and
move on, OK?
I have yet to determine if 4.5-REL-p7 has the patches Terry speaks of, but
I'll look into it, and chart my own course, just as the two of you have.
