 Well, shoot.  I'd followed the link I thought was for the latest release, a=
 nd didn't get any indication it was unstable.  (Maybe knowledge of version =
 conventions is assumed.)  Anyway, 3.2.0 was released over the weekend.  I'l=
 l update my local version to that and send a patch.  If you keep it on hold=
 , that's fine, but maybe you can use it down that road.
