Did you try the -devel version or 1.01? (I did about an 80% rewrite of this
sucker after 1.0, but it hasn't shipped yet. I bounced a 1.1.0-pre1 tarball
off of Erik and he said he'd put it up today, meanwhile grab the subversion
snapshot.)

Busybox -devel is way ahead of 1.01. Hopefully we'll have a new -stable
release by the end of the year...
