Hi Bill,

I'm making slow but steady progress on the patching...Part of the problem
is that since 0.53, some of the items you added have be added by others
(the stuff in token.c not the bcp stuff), so it's become a big job merging
it down. Also, since 0.53 we've added locales support for date formats,
so i need to add that back on top of your patch once i get that far (but
I'll just leave it out for now so i can get the patch in, and then go
back at it).

So, I'm hoping to get it done by this weekend (fingers crossed).

Brian
