Re: Help with Patch

Hi Ashod,

I was on the IRC channel trying to work through my build issues for two
days - I would appreciate your help. I'll send you an email.
I realize getting the build to work on my computer is ideal, but since it
is such a small patch I thought this might be best for now (and because of
my inexperience).

Thanks,
Nathan
