ah, I didn't notice the pkgsrc version was newer than the pre-built 
version.  I guess I'll need to build from source.  It's bit 
inconvenient, but hopefully I can just build that one package.  Thanks 
for the pointer!

mmm... more building from source... I've been trying to avoid doing that 
unless I'm actually doing some development, since it usually seems like 
a waste of time, but I suppose I'll take a look at what's new.  Is there 
any particular killer feature that's been added in the new branch?
