Fair enough, I saw that you'd written "tried every option" but a lot of people 
don't actually mean that.  :-)

Hmm okay so it is a known bug then; have you done any hunting around on the 
bugtracker or bothered a bug marshall?  That would be my next step, and 
possibly where I'd expect to sit and hang for a while unless you could get 
the attention of someone with the skills to really dig in and fix it.

Becuase it's a workaround and doesn't actually address the problem?  In your 
case it might be a valid solution though; I wonder how hard it'd be to 
actually hack in?
