This was discussed on debian-user (grunts in the general direction of 
infidel respondents elsewhere in this thread):

http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2004/08/msg04337.html

In particular, see Jim McCloskey's response (not properly attached to 
the thread): http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2004/08/msg04546.html

...and OP Kevin Smith's workaround (also not properly attached): 
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2004/08/msg04552.html

(Apologies to James for causing you extra work; I'm generally used to 
lists which are open for all without approval needed for 
non-subscribers and saw no indication of plug's MO being different. 
Should be fixed now. Oh, and "broke" is not an adjective in proper 
American English, if one considers such a thing to exist.) ;)
