this is my fault.  i shouldn't have named the branch '1.6'... in fact, 
i'd be happy to rename it, if that's what people want.

i DO run the tests, religiously, BTW, and i mentioned this explicitly in 
an earlier message:

this was sent on 11/16, i've done a bit more work since then, but 
haven't gotten things squared away, yet.

my apologies.  as i said, i'm very aware of the issue and it resolving 
it is on my short short list of things to do.  the problem is, as jens 
pointed out, that i shouldn't have created a 1.6 branch but should have 
instead given it another name until it was more ready for public 
consumption.

i have to run to a meeting right now, but if someone wants to rename the 
branch, please do.. i will be putting some time into this tonight, 
hopefully i can get this completely resolved.  otherwise, i will be 
off-line all weekend, and will be picking up development early next week.
