Okay, I'll respin.  I'll just note that this series now is in danger of
missing 1.4 (after 1.2 and 1.3) because only Laszlo and Eric gave it a
decent review in the six months since it was first posted.

Had I been employed by any other company, I'd probably just have kept
the code in house and forgotten about upstream.

Oops, you're right.  We fixed the problem in a different way.
