As I wasn't planning on it to be an official patch, I did not handle it with the
usual care. My mailer is Thunderbird, and it does mess with the white space in
patches.

To retest, I did a 'git checkout 741b4fbc44' and then applied my patch just in
case there was a second breakage of the driver in the tree. It worked for a
while, then went offline, but then so did the case with 741b4fbc44 reverted. I 
think some of my problems may have been due to overheating. I thought we had 
that problem licked, but maybe not.

I will be submitting the proper patch tomorrow, particularly if it works for others.
