Well, I hadn't really intended for this patch to go into the GNATS master
tree; really I just wanted opinions on whether the patch should do what I
want it to do.  My thought was just to apply it to our local gnatsd (thus,
the 3.113 source).  It would probably not be a useful feature for other
projects, so I can't suggest that it go into the development of GNATS 4.

Ah, I might try that instead.

Thanks for your note!
