A quick update after such a long delay; I applied your patch for OpenSRF
trunk to OpenSRF trunk. Evergreen is (probably) next. Now that I'm
running my own laptop on Fedora 13 and am getting comfortable again &
up-to-date with RPM-based distros after an absence of 8 years or so,
your patches look reasonable - certainly a great improvement over what's
already there!

I'd still like to get some independent testers confirming these patches
on an actual RHEL or CentOS system, but I figure we'll be in better
shape to have such testers if these patches get merged to trunk rather
than rotting away on the mailing list.

Thanks again, Lee.
