I've just got to say that testing Ingo's stuff is always an absolute pleasure. Ingo has pulled in test patches into his git tree which makes testing potential fixes many times easier for me (I've had yahoo mail mangle patches which would force me to rebuild the patch by hand rather than just apply it). The sheer speed of turn around is scarily impressive too. If you ever want to know how to get people to test your stuff Ingo's lead is a good one to follow.

Give me a few minutes and I'll try and get back to you...
