 Ah, right..

 So, the easiest way to fix this is:

if (user monitor) {
   exit(0);
} else {
   go through main;
}

 And, wrt to the pull, assuming you like the other patches, what's the best for 
you?

 Should I just drop this patch and ask you to pull again or can I do the fix,
rebase, send it in this thread, and ping you?
