Evil Jay:

First thank you for the longish explanation of your problem.  However,
posting it here may not get it fixed.  Can you file a bug report in
Bugzilla after checking if a report already exists.  Also, can you
update the Applications Database with your findings?  I don't want your
hard work to be lost in the mailing list/forum shuffle.

Thank you.
