And just 2 or 3 days ago, I also posted a question (2 questions actually) 
regarding this issue wondering if:

1) for those of us who are neophytes trying to learn and help but like to keep 
a buildable copy and have tried several attempts find the easy solution (to 
know avail) if someone could post the correct fix or give me a little 
hint/lesson (private email is acceptable if you want to keep it off the list).  
I would appreciate it greatly.  I am having difficulty finding the correct 
place or method to override. 

2) Until this is resolved - is it potentially a fix that could/should be 
incorporated into the cvs for all to benefit and not have to keep asking.
