October 2000?  Why didn't you search the whole archives?  How young do you 
think this project is?  Personally, I'm relieved that this topic has not 
flared up (again) in that time period!:-)  Search the WHOLE archives.  Also,
if you don't like what you find either before or after that, submit a patch 
and it will be considered.
