Just as reminder folks, patches on the mailing list are great but if I 
don't have time to deal with them right away, they often times get 
forgotten.  Just a few days ago I was trying to apply some of the 
patches from sourceforge and fix some of the bugs there.  When I have 
free time that I feel like using for pcb patching and bug fixing, that 
is where I go to look for issues.
