OTOH, it may make sense to have a baseline tool provided innately, but provide the appropriate third party hooks to allow alternative tools to evolve independently of the stdlib. How well does the regression test suite cope when run inside such a virtualised environment? Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncoghlan at gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia
