...Unfortunately, my 880 is now mounted (deep) in a vehicle, so it's not easily accessible for general development. However, if I can reproduce this on another model, which I expect I can, then I should be able to fix it and just sit in the car to test. I targetted it for 0.4.0 so it'll get done.

I temporarily faced the same dilemma as you have, with my IC-2820H in my car in my garage. As I mentioned in a previous post, you can install the (free) Digi PortServer support on either Linux or Windows (I did both), and then you can directly access (via the Internet) one of my ID-880H radios for testing. Or, you can buy one of the boxes and remotely access your own ID-880H in your car. Or both.

Either from the comfort of your own living room (grin).

All my radios (except for the ID-51A) have their serial ports permanently available via the Internet using Digi PortServer boxes.

Thanks for the bug, and in advance for figuring out why mercurial doesn't see your change :)

Well, I'm still using CVS for my own personal software development. I've been planning (when one is retired, one's set of "plans for the future" increase exponentially) to move to a newer system for some time, so I'm looking at alternatives. SVN was the initial candidate, but that now seems out of favor compared to GIT/HG. Since I like tools that run WELL on multiple platforms, I'm leaning toward HG. Still, either the learning curve is steep, or I haven't yet found good documentation.
