oh nice. i'm sure people will appreciate this. this may actually be 4enough
reason for a "point release" ie 0.16.6. does anyone agree. personally i dont run
any of the gnome & kde stuff - so can people try the patch and see how it goes?
if it goes ok - lets apply to cvs and maybe roll out a release?
