I wonder, in general, if fixing the underlying problem is even practical or worth the investment of time. IIRC the problem was in third-party code -- and it seems to me that making your own code robust enough to handle failures in third-party libraries (as you just did) is a really fruitful use of your time; fixing the library itself, maybe not so much. I guess it depends on how it all affects your end users. Ben
