        Wonderful - I'm glad you approve. Thanks for taking the time
to look at it; sorry it's cryptic - I tried to make it unambiguous,
yet compact.

        Sorry - the 'broken' signal comes from the LINCConnection
object on the CORBA_Object.

        Good point - the broken signal can happen anytime, during the
linc mainloop - so we need to delay any destruction logic to a glib
idle handler. I've updated the document here, and the re-write is well
underway.

        Thanks,

                Michael.
