have you actually hacked squid to use this yet? i played with it for about
4 hours yesterday, and, while very cool, it wasn't exactly a walk in the
park :) of course, i'm an idiot, so i won't place all of the blame on the
lib itself.

in any case, if anyone's interested, i'd be up for hacking out a patch
based on that lib during the next week..
