Roger is right -- the thread is misnamed, the bug is in emptool v2.00b1 (and earlier).

I haven't sent the patch to anyone yet, because I was having issues with my home connection -- I was going to mail it
to bugs@. If it's FITNR, I'll just be content having my version fixed early.

If anyone does want the patch, though, I've attached it here (hopefully).

Cheers,
Ammon
