  That's a problem that auto232 already has.
  It's cleanly solvable for WB why not take that and just ignore this for
  auto232? I have a feeling that auto232 will not survive very long anyway.

I tried to add winboard232b.exe as an engine but during the Add process it
made my system (win2000) to crash completely. I had to reboot each time.
I couldn't figure out what was happening. Something is done when the program is
loaded. That's for sure!
There are other wb-aut232 programs but I don't know where they are.
