	Thankfully, most of the problems that have crept up only affect  
Panther, which is a small audience. All of them have been fixed  
already so I'm preparing a 1.6.1 release, off which I'm planning to  
rebuild the dmg's. So, in short: no, it wouldn't be a stealth update,  
not-while-I'm-around-days ;-)

	In any case, I have to think a bit more about it and consider other  
possible failures (mostly of the postflight script) in order to fix  
them before the bite us in round 2... but one thing I definitely need  
to do is think about this entire business once I get my sanity back  
after some much needed sleep!

	Regards,...
