Well, lets try it then. I believe the patches should work. If not, I 
will have to change the upstream code. (Will have to do that anyway, but 
I'd rather collect some more changes before releasing another version.)

I checked in the patches and added hardening flags since I now know how 
to do that. I even documented both. Could you please upload this new 
version?
