Roughly two years ago, I wrote:
zephyr 2.0-beta2 xzwrite crashes whenever a znol notification
comes in.
I don't want to be a pest, but this was not fixed, even though there
have been several releases since 2.0-beta2.
My original message contained a suggested fix put not in standard
format. This time I'll include a standard patch.
If this is not fixed in two more years, expect an other reminder. :-)
Have a nice day,
Sal.
