I know :-(

I'm working on it... I'm flushing my patch queue now that my fortran 
compiler is working again and I can run the test suite.

That done, I'm going to make the release branch so that we can put fixes
on that without stopping development on the trunk, and then make another
alpha release that we can use as a baseline for platform testing.

Cheers,
        Gary.
