[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
On further thought, I came up with a patch that should be portable without 
overly complicating the code or hurting efficiency, so I installed it 
(attached). Please give it a try on your platform.

I am still leery about changing the GNU coding standards, though. In general we 
shouldn't ask developers to jump through these sorts of hoops for platforms so 
far from the typical GNU environment.
