I'll try it later on, but just skimming the patch it seems to do the same
thing that I did last night.  I would have posted my patch (which looks
just like it, but I left the 'const' in) last night if QWORST (US West +
Qwest) did not take out my ISP's Virtual ATM Circuit for DSL service for
almost 5 hours.  <sigh>
