we could release it for production use in our environment. The

Initial revision
=============================================================================
I realize that our one-line descriptions of changes are rather
terse for you to fix anything from; but may suffice to recognize
bugs that you have since fixed anyway, and to see that a couple of
our changes are customizations rather than bugs.
If you would like our fixes, please reply with instructions on
how this is to be done; I could mail the entire source in pieces,
but some variant of diff output might be more useful as well as less
volume.
Unfortunately, I have not retained test cases that actually
provoked all the bugs we fixed, but could doubtless reconstruct some
of them if you need them.
Thank gnu for providing this free software.
