Yes, that's what I get for depending upon my memory for this. Sorry about
that, but based upon the comment (and the obvious intent) that "path" should
be "name".

I also must appologize that I somehow missed your test suite for bbv2 (I'm
not quite sure how). For all the caveat's about the low level of testing
of this patch I could have easily gotten more confidence in the code by
running your suite and seeing what it breaks.

Let me get the cvs source from the website, reapply this patch and run
your tests.

(Ah yes, I finally found this old code, and the "path" was "name" in it.)

I'll get back to you with the test results once I figure how to run them.
