not sure if I mentioned this, but we patched this for 7.2.2. I can supply the patch if you'd like to include it at this point.

btw, we finally released 7.2.1-final this weekend (had some windows client problems for a while..). we hope to have a much faster cycle for 7.2.2, which would include this patch, and hope to have a beta out within the next few weeks.

that's awesome, thanks for your continued effort! :) I will try to check the results today or tomorrow.


cheers,
