Thanks.  I'll wait until 4.3.1 unless I hear from a RM that I can install it 
now.

Note: this particular patch cannot go any further back than 4.3.x, exactly 
because it uses a feature (builtin) not available in earlier releases. 
Andreas is working on a different version of the patch for 4.2/4.1 and will 
hopefully post it shortly.
