Okay - now's your chance to use the bug reporting system on the Toolbox
project page.  Go to http://oss.software.ibm.com/developerworks/projects/aixtoolbox,
click on the Bugs tab, and submit a problem report.  You'll then get a
confirmation request which you need to respond to in order for the bug
to transition out of the "Pending" state.

Maybe our emacs expert will look into this one before our 5.1 release.

Thanks,
Marc
