Know the feeling. Didn't have a chance to try your (and Jason's) rebaseall 
fix for apache last night -- things you can't do over ssh are a pain.

I'm not so worried about the server to be honest... It's only the
readline-based client that uses that nasty B19 dll which is what I want to 
get rid of cleanly.

Although having said that, I don't think MySQL 4.1 Alpha ships with the 
dodgy dll -- not sure what they've done, haven't investigated it properly 
yet.
