Yep, good.

Ok.

My only concern is that I don't think string_parse_tree should require
patching.  AFAIK it should never be included in the Borland build currently
due to the define of USE_DATE_TIME_PRE_1_33_FACET_IO.  That said, my take is
that 'Borland only code' in the patch should work on all compilers -- so go
ahead and commit it and I'll retest and remove the conditionals if it works out.

Thx for the helping hand :-)
