Subject: Re: Problems with the 0007 patch

I do not think your fix was busted, it was just fixed for the case of 
xBuf != 1

So if your fix ever worked for sequential buffers (xBuf=1), it will now 
also work for interleaved ones.

I'm more worried about the 0010 patch. Did that break something? I 
*think* it should not.
