Confirmed.

I wouldn't use it in a production environment. That said, I know people
that do. YMMV - I recommed setting up a test domain. Also, there's a
specific CVS branch (can't recall the name) that has had "most success"
round about version 2.5 - you probably want to look at that.

Cheers,
Phil
