I hope you don't mind me replying on the public mailing list.  It seems like a 
question for everyone, not just me.

Stepan Kasal has given a good answer to this in reply to one of your other 
posts, and the only thing I can add is that it is useful if you post examples 
of tests that fail, with the expected output and the actual output stated, as 
you did in another message just now.  If you can modify the existing test files 
(in the tests/ directory) or add a new file to incorporate these tests, that 
would be even better.  If you do that, then use "cvs diff" to generate a patch, 
and post it to this list <address@hidden>.

Thanks for your help.
