In answer to this, a 2.2.10 patch has been "Real Soon Now" for some
time... I have it running with 2.2.7 with no problems, but 2.2.8+ requires
changes... If you fancy rolling your own there are several ideas about how
to do it in this list over the last 2 weeks....
I will be waiting for the updated patches because I don't have anything
critical to do.... but my original query was for more information, rather
than more code!

Sometimes you're ahead, somtimes you're behind.
The race is long, and in the end it's only with yourself.
