no... in order to get a version with THIS bug fix, then the bug needs to not be 
moved to "r" before it is investigated.  I am pretty confident this bug is not 
fixed.  The recommendation was to build the same exact version from source.

yeah for some inexplicable reason my USB flash drive won't work any more. 
Suddenly says type "tvfat" is not supported by the kernel (bs).  Dunno why.  yet 
another problem to debug on this so-called "reliable" linux machine.  makes me 
long for Windows.  And it's not on a network #1 because it has no network card 
and #2 because it's an all-audio computer.

so for now, I have to retype the errors.
