Both the complete release and the patch was available on Jacque's web
site. I downloaded both yesterday, but decided to upload first the fixed
1.2.5 version because it was late. Today, i thought i will first look at
the patch, to see if any build-stuff was changed, and saw it was a
smallish patch, which just added a few functions. So i applied it, and
when editing the changelog, i was first tempted to call it simply
1.2.5-6, but remembered your mail, and changed it to the current
1.2.5-6+2002.10.31
