Yes, the new eXtender works OK. I've already put it in my prerelease
directory.

If we intend to turn on all debugging output, we would need to clean in up a
bit, for example, writing a "[<module>]" before each message in order to
know who printed what. I've already did something in this way. Ok, so I
suppose we could release two binary images, normal and debug.

Just let me know when everything in the CVS is OK and if you want to prepare
the release yourself, or should I prepare it myself (not a problem for me,
as said, I've a prerelease directory ready).
