Hi Carlos,

sorry, no idea what went wrong with the communication. I've now committed the patch with r4586.

Hi Gerd

I replied to your patch a couple of months ago, but I have now realized
it didn't arrive to the list (it seems I used and old address). I was
surprised you didn't say anything, but didn't want to bother...

I used your binary for my test. Today I have tried to apply your patch,
but it seems to be generated against a different version of files in trunk.

Hi Gerd
I have tested it in an area of 4x10 degrees, in the North of China, and
it worked fine.
