That's exactly my problem too. I would prefer to fix the 
problems correctly and ask the SA team to take that onboard and 
get something that works not just for me, but for anyone who 
comes along later as well.

Applying your patches doesn't work on 2.41 :-( I may simply use
an older version if I can still get it. Thanks for your suggestion
though.

The second "chunk" of your first patch is no longer required
for 2.41, its already in there, so I guess they fixed that already.
I can't find anything like the code in your second patch either,
so they must have changed that completely.

Huh? I didn't know SA knew anything about Windows. AFAIK it 
isn't supported. Wait, maybe it was in 2.31 and is not now,
which would explain why the code in your second patch is
no longer there.
