What I (and others) repeatedly asked for was an explanation of why there
were the differences between the bytecode from your version and the
bytecode from mine. This was never explained by you and I was left to do
this myself. Sadly, doing so meant some duplication.

Anyhow, I think I can now explain the differences. Now we have two
versions, its a question of how to proceed. Basically one needs to be
merged into the other. I will try and compare the two patches and see
what differences we have.

Regards,

Richard
