I thought I remembered seeing something similar in the past, but 
couldn't find it at the time.

Here it is for future hunters:

I should have mentioned earlier that after reading the code I was 
starting to use option (a) above (there's almost always something that 
complains during a real install, but I guess not during sysinfo), but I 
think I'll use your hook instead.

Thanks,
Brian
