Greetings,

choocroot is right on target. Coincidentally, I did download the modules a few days back, and added that patch and few others that prevented them to work correctly with the latest format changes on perlmonks. I did /msg zzamboni about them. If anybody's too impatient to wait for the true official version, these is the diff file I came up with:

You can't have everything: where would you put it?
