The attached patches are tested vs 2.3.5 (on OS/2; should have no
effect elsewhere).  These are slightly reworked patches which were
send here long time ago already (maybe even several times).  Have no

 NOTE: the problem noted in 'program' is that install() does not work in your
 configuration$end, so you will not be able to use this feature. Otherwise you
