Understood. I have another couple of days development ahead so I will 
keep with the stretch packages for another couple of days just to be 
sure, then I'll switch over to your latest sid packages and give those a 
good testing.

Also thanks once again for your work on fixing up the memory leaks - I 
had a peek at the git repository and I can see why you consider the 
change to be quite invasive...


ATB,
