Thanks Kevin - I know it's trunk. I have been 'running trunk' for almost two
years now. Only had one or two problems along the way. Very light usage.
Noticed it is a module so took it out of Makefile - nothing in menuselect to
turn it off so thought it might be more important than it was. Thought it be
better to flag the developers list - just in case.
