Hi Toshikazu,

Thank you for providing this fix.  I've just checked it in to the CVS.

I have noticed the Japanese mailing list at Yahoo, but I can only read
it through a translation website.  Sometimes I'm able to understand a
post, sometimes not.  I would really appreciate it if you can keep me
uptodate on patches like this one.  Thank you again.

Andrew.
