Fixed in main trunk.
Will be fixed in release32 if the fix will be permitted for that branch.

Comment 4 dmladek 2001-06-27 10:53:03 UTC
Cannot be verified from our side. Probably platform dependency problem.


Hi Gili,
will you be so kind and tell us if this fix was successfull, please?
You could just mark this bug as verified, if yes, or reopen it.

thanks
Daniel

I'm closing this bug (NOT VERIFIING) because I'm not able to verify
this(we don't have needed configuration here) and submiter didn't
respond to our prompt
