[jamming] Join modifier

[John Waugh]

I'd be interested
We use scons at work and it's so painful (:

Is the join bug mentioned here:
http://maillist.perforce.com/pipermail/jamming/2004-October/002456.html
fixed in that version, by any chance ?
Easy to work around, in any case.

much thanks if you do a release
