RE: Volunteer with Mac wanted to verify bug
Alastair,
I don't know if you have this resolved yet or not but I'll give it a shot.
Just so I don't blow it, shoot me an e-mail of exactly what you need me to
do and I'll try it. (I'm a n00b so I need some handholding!! :-))
Thanks,

Probably not much help, but I ran into this exact same problem as well,
I'd be glad to help try and reproduce it, but I've already upgraded.
