	Thank you for posting that. I've been seeing much the same thing, 
for it seems like two or three releases now; and it has always wanted to 
take not only a huge number of things, but several that are crucial to my 
use. There has to be something wrong: I always remove umpteen dozen apps 
having to do with languages I never see, and then have to leave Thai.

	Can somebody at least tell us *why* this patent aberration is 
arising?
