[PLUG] pilot-link and sync


I want to sync my pilot directly with pilot-link, as the most recent
release of jpilot and libpisock9 have introduced a bug for me.  I
think I remember someone here (Art?) talking about doing this.  The
obvious thing, pilot-xfer -s ~/.jpilot/ , doesn't work, as it does a
one-way transfer rather than copying in both directions.  Does anyone
have any suggestions?

Thanks for any thoughts.

(Background follows for the curious.)

I use jpilot, but a recent upgrade has introduced a bug in
communication with my (admittedly ancient) Palm III.  I reported the
bug to the DM,

    http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=396751

who forwarded it upstream,

    http://bugs.jpilot.org/1758

I'm proud of myself on this bug: I compiled jpilot and libpisock9 from
source with -g and spent an hour in gdb figuring out as close as I
could where the bug was.
