 Nathan,
 you marked this report as confirmed. How strongly do you feel about this? 
 I think the message I get is actually not wrong, so at the most I would 
 concede to make it a feature-request and mark it as that (and maybe put it 
 in suspended mode?). I agree that the message 2.95 (the lower one below) 
 is more accurate, but I think the one we now get is also ok.
 
 Regards
   Wolfgang
