Hi Vit and OP,

OP my issue is, well, created (embarrassingly) by me. So you probably still have some sort of bundler issue. And I'm sorry for thread hijacking.

Vit, thanks for the help. In the BZ, Mamoru gave me some pointers and got me pointed in the right direction.

Again, sorry about the hijack and misinformation...
