Well, <rant>Perhaps if people *told* me about the errors, rather than
asking others then maybe the answer would be yes!</rant>
Seriously, Neil and I are busy people, but when a *serious* bug manifests
itself out there we try and fix it and release a version pdq.
This particular bug does indeed sound to be of the "serious" variety. Could
someone please send me some more information, eg a Syslog dump with the log
level set to 2 ("SyslogD_Debug 2" in the !Run file)
Thanks,
