Just for the record: I originated the thread, and I have only sent one
letter on this matter which wasn't also copied to gnuwin32. That was
to Mumit Khan saying nothing except that I had already sent a related
note to gnuwin32. In particular, everyone here has also seen what I
wrote directly to vtailor AT gte DOT net. That note was perhaps showing a bit
of frustration with receiving conflicting signals from various people, but
hardly "wildly abusive". You be the judge.
