Blaine,

Of course, you can count on me to test things for you.

As far as I can tell my test machine works like your test machines, but 
gplugs.sf.net is one of the recalcitrant machines.

Let me know and I will test it for you.  Or if you can't wait till I am 
available, you have access youself and can do it yourself.  The only file 
that is changed there now is the gl_format.php where I commented out the 
check for gpc.
