I have tested them on a C610 with what I think is a buggy LC040 and
I still see problems. I'm not sure if they're all due to the LC040
revision being a buggy one or not (and I'm not positive that the
revision that I have is buggy--I've heard that some of the problems
were introduced sometime during production, so earlier and later ones
are OK, but middle-aged ones are not).

It looks like they were pulled up to the 1.5 branch on 26 September,
so 1.5, even, should have them.
