Ken,
This stuff is sort of half finished in 0.47. Most parts are there, but not
everything gets built just yet. If you are running on Linux, you may be
able to get by by checking out the lastest stuff from the CVS repository
on SourceForge.
I should be releasing 0.48_01 within the next week with this stuff
functionnal (at least on Linux).
