Sure, that would work. However, I will just note that on Windows the
distributing a .REG file is almost as easy and might be better for
centrally-managed installations.

Sure, but I'm going to leave the flag in there for no so I don't have to
implement the whole DLL mapping thing. That can be done later.

Unfortunately, testing with the current CVS tree still requires me to
merge my changes with yours because you added the negotiation stuff. I
will try to do the merge and then I'll send you a patch and we can both
test it out.

By the way, when 1.11.1.3 is released, will you please create a branch
for maintanance (bug-fixing only) purposes?

Thanks,
Brian
