Well, I answered my own questions: "spec comes first", and "setting the
default to 0 fixes it".  If you need a quick fix, Kevin, I can personally
send you a diff (contextual or unified, your choice =) with the change
until this gets into CVS.

I will put a patch up on SF ASAP and email back here with the patch #.
