Yeah, SF seems to be having email trouble. It's that (1) link in August -- but it's currently broken. I waited 5 hours for it to correctly post before tagging this bug "forwarded", and it never did, so I just linked to the whole archive.

Okay, and with the squeeze freeze on the way, I'll try to get to this sooner rather than later.
