Is a fix available, or will a fix be available for v1.0 ? I mean, I've 
seen it's still v1.0.15 that is packaged in the brand new Debian stable 
(Lenny), so that may be useful for anyone using Debian (if there are 
actually more people who need the feature than people who raised the 
issue !!)
Is that a hard work to do ? May I be of any help ?

Thank you very much again
