Oh.  I didn't know about that one.  Does that also mean that if I do something
like:

	set dead = /dev/null

That I will NOT end up with two copies (i.e., if that's what I WANT to force
to happen)?  If that will work, then I would agree that it is a feature,
and not a 'BUG'.  Otherwise. . .              :-)

By the way, Bart-  Are you going to be posting a Patch #5 soon?
