Thanks for logging the "bug".

I actually tried changing the above lines, but that didn't seem to fix 
the issue properly. I also don't understand the configure schema, so I 
didn't want to pursue this too deeply. I'm honestly not much of a 
programmer at all, so... My hack solves the issue well enough for now.

Thanks for the replies (to both of you).
