Isn't 0.30 the latest?  Thats what i'm using.  Maybe i'm using it wrong, hence the original email.

I haven't filed one, nor bothered to look - i'm lazy.  I'd like to move away from it if possible, for this case it just makes things a _lot_ more difficult and less efficient for the code than it needs to be, and bypasses much of what gettext() gives you in the first place from a coders pov.

On the other hand if a newer version fixes it i probably wont try to fix these problems either, since the tricky code is already done - and, well, i'm lazy.
