I have taken a look now into the new source for 2009, but it is a pain
.... there is no patch against 2009, but a separate dir.

It would be so much better if we would have a *patch* against tl2009
sources ... hmmm ... maybe when I have more time.

Then we could get it to compile agianst tl2011 sources, or actually
build it with the tl2011 sources.

Best wishes

Norbert

SUTTON and CHEAM (nouns)
Sutton and cheam are the kinds of dirt into which all dirt is
divided. 'Sutton' is the dark sort that always gets on to
light-coloured things, 'cheam' the light-coloured sort that clings to
dark items. Anyone who has ever found Marmite stains on a dress-shirt
or seagull goo on a dinner jacket (a) knows all about sutton and
cheam, and (b) is going to some very curious dinner parties.
