Right, I have just read A. Morton's reply to his earlier email in which
he states 'That "fix" didn't fix it '...
Sorry, I didn't check the documentation yet - in fact I quite simply
wanted to find out whether the sources had been fixed before I proceed
with
the donwload-compile-install routine...
Seems like we'll have to wait tull 2.4.21.

I know, that's what I meant when I wrote 'limited'.

Yep. I guess it's not.

Thanks for your reply (and the subject correction :] )
