Sorry.  When I said `immediate', I meant I'd install it without delay
after getting the patch, not that the patch should be posted
immediately.

Have a nice trip!

In fact, I've still got the messages you've posted, but I can't figure 
out what is right, what is experimental, and what should be just
discarded, so I thought I'd ask, since I don't have access to any such 
platform to test.

Ok, so we can wait.  But I thought it would be nice to install at
least what is already known to be correct, so that others could build
upon what you've done, instead of reinventing the wheel.

Yeah, I know the feeling :-)

Enjoy your vacation!
