Re: New version, release candidate for 1.4

I've gone through some testing on this, and it looks well-behaved to me.
It passed all the tests I had, and since I'm usually the one to find
Hunter's nasties, I'd say it's good to go.  *ducks the baseball bat
Hunter just threw at me*

Anyone else had a chance to give it a look-see?  I haven't bothered to
look at the docs yet, just testing actual functionality...
