OK, I've just about had it with all the problems we've had since moving
to SourceForge.  It gets to the point where we spend more time fighting
with them and their buggy systems than we do working on our software.
Now it won't even let me login so I can respond to the bug report above.
So, I'm posting my reply here instead.

In response to...
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=104593&aid=494765&group_id=4593

That's funny, I thought I'd fixed that a long time ago, but it appears
I haven't.  The fix will be in next Sunday's snapshot of 3.1.6 in
http://www.htdig.org/files/snapshots/, but if you want the fix right now,
or if you need it for 3.2.0b4, here is the patch.  Thanks for the report.
