Agreed - thanks for the help!

At the moment, almost none of the 1.3.2 CMRs apply cleanly... :-/

That's the source of my concern with a change that would hit so many things.

Thanks Rainer!

This sounds reasonable -- small changes are always appreciated. If we can hold off on the big patch until 1.3 is about to morph into 1.4, that would be good.

Can you remind us about this issue when 1.3.2 gets out the door? (sorry, not trying to be a jerk; I just know that my short term memory is so non-existent that I'll have forgotten about it by then :-( ...what were we talking about again?)

Hmm, sure, we can hold off the big patch.
With the current plan, 1.3.2 should be out on 4/3.

Some intermediate (small!) steps however I'd still like to be able to apply?

However, it would be nice, if You could test the patch on Your systems, prior to me moving it into trunk. I want to limit the "down-time" of trunk (There may be a few places, where additional headers are required -- as unnecessary
headers were removed in lower-level headers).

Thanks,
Rainer
