	Does malsync on its own work? I just tried it here with the 
latest (broken and bloated) AvantGo 5.7 Build 35 client. It definately 
works (after some slight code modifications to Malsync to allow it to 
build against 0.12.0 of pilot-link, but your 0.11.8 version should be 
no issue).

	Did you set up AvantGo's server and delete the "New Server" 
account in AGConnect? When you successfully connect, the credentials 
are stored and made permanent.
