Thanks for the pointer.  At first, I saw your message and thought `oh
no, all that wasted effort'.  But, I think my API is still an
improvement because it provides a much more `cooked' interface.  Also,
I'm not _too_ keen on the callback style of doing things, at least as
a basic API.  You can always convert an event loop into a callback,
but the other way round is hard.

Ian.
