Ernie my-man...

Buh-lieve me, you are not alone.

On one hand, IBM prioritizes their fixes by whether there's a workaround or
not.  Or if its even a bug at all.  And then on the volume of calls handled
for a particular issue.  Then by the schedule of fixes for releases.  To a
certain degree this makes sense, but this is IBM.  Many lines in the sand,
many seas to cross. :-)

Thank me later,
