OK, will correct the above points.

Yes, I just realized that is dead code (sorry). Removing the 'if' statement would correct that? Also, is the unconditional assignment to service_dir correct in this case, or should some other test condition be added?
Another thing I'd like to ask is when I prepare the next patch, should it be sent as reply in this thread, or as a new thread?

Thanks and regards, Sidhant Sharma [:tk]
