Actually, I'm not advanced enough to explain what happens, but I've fixed
this, and also several dangerous typos (?) which prevent new_user_md5.php3
from working correctly - namely, in several places SQL queries referred to
a field named 'uid' when the correct field name is user_id. I'm attaching a
patch which fixes the array error and also incorrect field names. Feel free
to incorporate it into current CVS (or should I do it myself?)
