Thanks for confirming this isn't just me.

It's a bit of a problem, since without a working pwclient I can't tell 
if there's already a patch that does what I need.  If there's a way to 
search through the browser interface I haven't figured it out.

Khem, if I can help with diagnosis please let me know.
