Thanks for posting this Hugo.

Has Dag fixed this yet? I was about to update some documentation I have
hosted on the CentOS and Nagios sites, but wanted to confirm this
problem still exists before I proceed with mentioning these issues.

I looked on Dag's site and the release is still from December 12th, so
I'm assuming not.

Thanks,
Max
