Then, you dont need to rediscover things already reported by others. Thanks. Some people say here they dont have time to tes my patches (even to read my commit messages), but at the same time they write the Bible in their emails (by the way, not refering to you now). I do sleep 3 hours every day, more busy that all of you together and I still tested your patch and read (entirely) others emails. PD: By the way, I have tested your patch, and it looks good to me. It fixes the issue in a quite simple way.
