Thanks. So for that to work, I would wrap the calls to the offending

It was also mentioned off list by someone else that the two offending
lines in the module could be remmed out.

there isn't and maybe I should try submitting a patch. Since the
copyright notice in the module is 10 years old, where should a patch be
sent?
