[Georges Vael]

<x-flowed>Suspected this was the problem, glad it wasn't me.
I will workaround and I report the bug to Apple.
Gerbens mail and my response to Rosses request for files to reconstruct 
the problem with crossed. I'll leave them at the web for anyone 
interested or for Apple's  bug killers ;-).
