Thanks for posting.
In theory (based on the description of the symptom and the workaround),
that issue should be fixed in r22594 or above. It looks like he /just/
updated with r22764 (
http://www.thesniderpad.com/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=42&func=select&id=7
). I'd appreciate anyone who stills sees the issue with that version
letting me know.
Thanks,
Mike
