Ah, here we go again.  This is precisely why I can't work with you.
Nothing I say seems to stick in your mind.  I've been telling you for the
last four weeks that it doesn't work - and I've shown you the oopses and
warnings I get from trying it.  Your response to date: nothing of any
real use.

If you're not going to provide any useful responses on bug reports, it is
totally unreasonable that you even suggest that _that_ is how it should
be done when I've already proved that it's impossible at present.
