Just to clarify something I said below:

The scratch category has ALWAYS been 301, but with ENABLE3590LIBRARY on,
it automatically adds 1 to that for the 3590... So, there are no
ramifications to enabling this, as it is now doing what it's supposed
to...

1> Amazing that ADSM support had no clue about this option.

2> Unfortunate that the skeleton file for V3 options doesn't have it!

Thanks,
-Scott
