Do you have a pointer to the previous discussion handy (if you do not, that is OK---I think I can dig the list archive myself)?

Also, your patch messages appear from you at gmail yet signed off by you at microsoft. Please make them consistent (I can fix them up while queuing _this_ time, but I do not want forever doing that for future patches from you or other people). One easy workaround to do so without convincing your mailer to put your microsoft address on the sender's From: line in the e-mail is to put an extra

    From: Kevin Without <kewillf@microsoft.com>

line, followed by a blank line, at the very beginning of the body of the e-mail message.

Thanks.
