<sigh>

_I_ posted this solution, including a much better one that involves adding
just 3 lines in total instead of changing each and every IP address
VirtualHost block, over 24 hours ago on this and the developrs list.

I wouldn't thank Cobalt Support so readily, when they didn't have this
solution yesterday for those that they completely screwed up after releasing
this update and then refusing to support it!
