Hey, I LIKE that idea. I'll try to provide same patches in the next few
days.

Should I continue to use the methods from my previous patches (mostly
the stubinfo version detection and the transfer buffer true size fields
in the 32 bit code)?

Is there a version of any of the files I should make the patches against
(esp stub.asm) or should I just do them against the stock sources?
