Hi Victor,

Thanks, I've been meaning to upgrade but just haven't gotten around to it
and haven't had issues with other things.

If there is something specific to 1.5.x that's causing the issue, that's
one thing and I'd like to know about it, but I feel like something else is
going wrong.

I'll take a look at the doc you mentioned and may even try Carl's
workaround.

Thanks,
Brendan
