Despite all the problems I fixed in this patch were confirmed,
I don't see the patch neither integrated into BBv2 nor rejected. Am I 
really supposed to install DIFF, create a .patch against the latest CVS 
and submit it using the SF patch facility? Its kind of scary for me, but 
if I really have to, I will.
