Yes. I think it is been like this for me for sometime
now. May be someone on this mailing list who has l2h
and 2008 version can try this?

May be I should downgrade my l2h then :)

Will now look at what you wrote down. For me l2h and perl is
like magic. I really do not know perl at all and find
this whole setup very complicated, that is why we are glad
we have experts like you around who understand this magic.

Will now look at this more and see what I find.
