Oops.  I really wasn't having a very good day yesterday, was I?  Guess I 
hit `Reply' instead of `Reply-to-All', so only Louis saw the reply -- it 
wasn't intentionally off-list. ;-(

Maybe it's just too new to have made it into the distros yet; 1.19.2 was 
released for download from gnu.org on 4-Sept-2005, but it then needs some 
time for the various distro packagers to incorporate it.  I don't know 
how long the lead time is, for Mac OS X or NetBSD.
