None, and the patch is well buried now that it'll take me a while to
find... back in mid-October?  Yea, I'll have to drop everything and
go digging through my mailboxes to find it... and I'm just catching
up (again) after a week and a bit's time offline - yep, it's wonderful
timing.  Sorry, no time to look at it right now, you're not the only
one wanting my attention at the moment.

Please try again in about a week's time - don't leave it a few months,
and please include the patch.
