They've been fixed (there were two bugs, one cause a stack trace, the
other I think just didn't work, can't remember, but they were both in
functions I don't use myself), I just haven't got around to releasing it
yet :(  Part of the problem is I haven't had time to properly test the
fixes (the coredump stopped, but I don't know if the code works as
intended yet).

I've been giving out the latest version on request
(bill AT taniwha DOT tssc DOT co DOT nz), but I intend on releasing the next version
soon
