Thanks for reporting this. I guess I don't have an autopktest case for that scenario, so I'll add one. I'll see if I can figure out what caused the change. There hasn't been any upstream release in years, and I had to make changes to my build process for this release, so I'm not sure whether I caused this or it was an upstream change. KEN > >
