 CodeGear.)

 With the updated patches I just uploaded the failures go down to 5 for
 CodeGear.

 As it is I'd prefer these patches to be applied rather than have the
 library disabled, so as to pinpoint the remaining problems. Should we get
 requests to the contrary from users it wouldn't be too complicated to
 backout.

 Note that I have commit rights so I can help with actually applying the
 changes.
