If this paragraph does not have hostility written all over it, then
perhaps I don't know what hostility is.

FYI, those who ``crept out of the woodwork'' did so only _after_ the
complaints about the non-standard error messages were met with clearly
hostile attitude and ``NO'' responses.  Perhaps you missed that while
reading the long thread, with some messages out of order due to mail
delivery delays.

If it is really important to you to know, we could start a discussion
with them.
