Sometimes I feel deflated after finding bugs: so interesting to
find but boring and trivial once found (and then there's testing).

I'll add my 2c of testing in a moment.  And thanks for the mount_h
patch: from where I'd got in my vacant gazing at the code it looks
right.  I'm going to have to draw a bl**dy big picture of the
whole DLL initialization / fork / spawn system one day; either
that or continue to limp along and hope someone more knowledgable
will fix the problems I find (or create) :-)

Cheers for now,
