 Um, not "completely" but its half broken (by changes made with some BBS). 

 JD, it is a kind of web browser for some but huge BBS in Japan.
 With Lenny version, it can see any articles but users cannot post any comments
 for that. The patched version can post.

 Thanks for uploading to backports.org, I see it (on my mirror in Japan :)

 It is one way to make users not be confused, I think.
 But I hope fixed version in Lenny is better.
