That's a fair requirement. I have some of Heidemann's code that
runs into the problem, but I don't have any that I can redistribute.
Would it be OK if I asked John to send you his code as well, if
you will abide with the non-redistribution requirement?
I understand the prioritization process, and FWIW, I agree with
it, in a resource-starved situation (e.g.g FreeBSD).
