Guess what *I* noticed today?

We've been using the HPEC for about a month now and hadn't had this
clipping problem. Today I added two licences. In the process, I noticed
that the HPEC version had been updated to 9.x. We'd been using 8.2.

Since I'm going through the process of adding the licence, I thought I'd
try updating the HPEC. The moral of that story: if it ain't broke, don't
fix it.

I've confirmed this: hpec-9.00.002 has the clipping problem. hpec-8.20
definitely doesn't. I've implemented and reverted. The clipping makes
the phones unusable.

I just count my lucky stars that I kept the old archive, or I'd be up
the creek right now.

What's the word on the patch?
