I can't explain the problems Chris saw.  Had I posted something yesterday it
would have been very much like Tony's post (dsn splits on whitespace, can't
tell where "@" comes from, etc) with the exception of a code checkin.  I am
going to try getting the MySQL classifier to work again.  Last night I got
MySQL installed and running on my Mac laptop via the fink installation.
I'll try to get a bit further tonight or tomorrow.
