Goran, I just read something about licensing issues with "the new Compiler
etc.". Does that mean it would likely still be useful to create a fix
against 3.6? I'd be happy to do that ASAP if it seems to make sense. I might
be able to do it tonight. I agree with you that there is a point at which it
becomes silly to talk about how to handle virtual fixes :-).
