Hi Deniz,

Sorry for my glacially tardy response.
That's a much cleaner way of doing it. I hadn't really looked into
composite types before, so thanks for the suggestion! I have attached the
new patch file to this message. Let me know what you think, and if you'd
like me to tweak it any further. I'll try to respond more promptly next
time.
