If so, I'm curious as to any evidence you can provide to that effect. I'd appreciate a pointer to any discussion or whatnot. URL? Or even a suggestion for where to search? I think I've looked pretty thoroughly... But looking at noapic mode a bit more closely, it appears likely that I can survive with its limitations, so thanks for the tip! -andy
