Dave, Thanks a LOT!
It worked perfectly! Menu was populated, composing takes less than I measured before (not 60%, just 40% now) and yes, I know that e16 was different from e17, but I was talking about the transition from 0.16.999 to 0.17, but since I was using the wrong method of compiling and getting the wrong sources, well... never mind. I miss some points and applications but nothing that I couldnt take care of. Thank you again!
