Hey Dmitry,

Thanks.  The tag "Release-0_2_0_branch" has the for the 0.2.X maintenance
branch.  We develop for 0.3.0 under the CVS head.

I'll go ahead and apply your patch to the 0.2.X development branch.  I
don't think we were originally planning to release a 0.2.4 release
(barring some horrific bugs that were found) since the 0.3.0 release is
close.

Would you like to us to go ahead with a 0.2.4 release so we can get an
official release for the freebsd community?

Thanks,
Al
