Were you experiencing those problems using the new patch with
0.21-fixes?  The reason I asked is that, while I didn't notice it at
first, the new patch version appears to be doing something that is
giving me unusual motion...not so much actual tearing, but motion
really doesn't look right.  For tonight I'm using Bob x2.  When I get
a chance to recompile I'm going back to the original patch.
