Two problems with that:
1. Some virii are text attachments. Your fix doesn't deal wioth them.
2. The maintainer of the XXX driver just uploaded a large patch that
fixes a major bug in their driver to the mailing list, and zip'd
it up to reduce its size. You just bounced it...
Basically, that particular fix causes pain and gives no gain, so as
far as I'm concerned, it's a non-starter...
Best wishes from Riley.
