Not a complaint, but a nod of assent - I am using the latest rsync tree
with Ben's 2.4.6 from PenguinPPC.org::linux-2.4-benh, and have found it to
be _exceedingly_ stable - MacOS has lasted several days (before I shut it
down, not due to a crash), which is certainly a record for me.

If MoL just had two more features, I'd be happy. Those being (a) being
able to use removable media without shutdown/restart cycles of MoL, and
(b) to have MoL release the sound device when it's not in active use. (And
maybe to have suspend brought back. And maybe '601 support? :) Even so,
things are looking very good in the stability department.

Thank you Samuel, for all your hard work - MoL is certainly shaping up to
be better than ever.
