Oh crap.  O_O 

This is one of those times I am glad I am not a shutdown/restart nut.  lol 

root@fireball / # uptime
 09:39:19 up 32 days,  1:48,  5 users,  load average: 0.35, 0.35, 0.44
root@fireball / #

Should be safe enough by now.  I wonder what version will have the fix
tho?  3.7?  3.8?  They move pretty quick tho.  That's good. 

Thanks for the heads up. 

Dale, not going to panic yet.
