This patch looks absolutely fine. And a test too _and_ a ChangeLog! Not 
bad for a first patch at all!

Unfortunately there's one thing Nick forgot to mention and unfortunately 
it's a prerequisite. We need a copyright assignment for a contribution 
this size.

<http://sources.redhat.com/fom/ecos?file=47> has some info, but the most 
important thing is the two things on 
<http://sources.redhat.com/ecos/assign.html>

Would it be possible to arrange for these to be signed and sent? If you 
let me know when that happens we can do the patch.

Thanks,
