Haven't heard from him in a while. I've got a patch or two pending
as well, one of which modifies this code to check for 16c2850s.
Usually he just says he's really busy.

implied by your problem, but I just want to check.

Hm. I didn't really read the comment, since I know what the
code is doing. :-) I can send you an 864 sheet if you'd like;
we most likely have the other 85x sheets around somewhere;
all pdf format.
