When I said Core 2, I was referring to Carlos and his updates on > #10117. This bug tracks Soerens problem. And the fact that Carlos and Mark discuss their different problems in the same bug is just plain wrong. We must learn to more aggressively point people at reporting their issues in own bugs, instead of hijacking an already existing similar looking bug (that might be for a different issue). Carlos, Mark, can you open own bugs for your issues? > Thanks, > Venki cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?" Ling Tan asked suddenly out of the darkness.
