Thanks for that. I was just looking at mail while a laptop was getting 5.6
installed so that I
could get back to the bug.
As we are beyond 5.6 now what happens with that bug? Add it to the M:Tier
collection?
I'm glad I could at least narrow the area and show a working one against the
bug.

This life is not the real thing.
It is not even in Beta.
If it was, then OpenBSD would already have a man page for it.
