Thanks for the patch, I will try to apply it soon.


.oO I sometimes wonder if it would not be better to just remove the
    minesweeper altogether.  It is sort of fun/amusing and it's not a
    big burden to keep it going, but as cases like these show, it's not
    zero-maintainance either.


Cheers.
