Could you discuss how you're experiencing a new bug ("appeared a couple
of days ago") if you're not using gnucach in a new way?  I'm sure there
are bugs in every piece of software I use.  There are a couple of which
I am aware (if I care to think on it) but I have work-arounds or I
wouldn't have accepted the software for use and would have chosen a
different solution.  I've never run into the "appeared a couple of days
ago" situation where the problem was a new bug; the problem has always
been in a different system (or is upstream of the keyboard :))
