Oh Lord.  Thanks for the heads up Corinna, I had not seen this.  I'm not going
to get a chance to reroll this until tomorrow evening; do you think this
warrants pulling the current build from distribution?  If so, by all means do
so.  I can write up an explanation/warning tomorrow and post it to the main list
if you think that's warranted (I guess I do, even if you don't want to pull it).
