    They ended up pulling their patch because of that problem. The article actually contains a link at the end pointing to the new patch. This was published back in January, so it's unlikely anyone would be bitten by this now, although it is definitely worth making sure people are aware of it.

    No need to apologize. You acted out of an abundance of caution. :)

    Your doing Great George. Having an abundance of Caution is ever so much better than the abundance of ignorance I have to work from! ":O}
