Okay, looking at some the patches you sent, I think it will resolve
the issue.  I'm still too new to this git patch concept to be sure how
to grab it to try it out, so I'll just wait until it gets committed
and then modify my changes to work well with it.

If it's a quick command I need to call, let me know and I'll try out the patch.

Thanks,

Doug
