   I never saw the patch, I'll have to keep my eyes open wider!

   That's good news. I might just have to go back and update again before I get   
   too deep in.

   I was using the git version on a slackware-current live DVD. I didn't check   
   the version but slackware current tends to be upto date.   
      
   When I did the git clone of grub it grabbed the source from master. When I ran   
   ./configure it said I needed gnulib (if I remember correctly). I wasn't sure   
   where to get that or how to build it, or if it would work so I bailed.   
      
   Sure wish I new about or saw the patch!
