For some reason I totally misread your original comment. I re-read
the thread this morning, and found my mistake. Mea Cupla. I thought
you did not want the macro, but that was not the case. Your objection
was to the error() call, and was totally correct. Not sure why I read
that email so incorrectly. Apologies.
So just ignore my previous comments ;)
Updated the patch. ChangeLog remains the same.
Cheers,
Phil
