Bookmarks Synchronizer extension under Firefox 1.5

My favourite and most used Firefox extension is with no doubt Bookmarks Synchronizer by Torisugari.
When I migrated to Firefox 1.5, it complained about missing compatibility; apparently version 1.0.1 of BS is for Firefox up to version 1.0, but this is just what the installation file claims, and changing it the extension installs correctly, though still doesn't work properly.
Using a version of the extension available on the creator's site and applying the same patch everything seems to be running fine(at least for me).

Howto:
1) download the xpi file of the new version of the extension from http://torisugari.spymac.com/
2) unzip it(xpi files are just zip archives)
3) open the file install.rdf
4) Locate the line that starts with <em:maxVersion> ,change 1.0+ to 1.5+ and save
5) Rezip, including install.rdf and the dirs chrome and defaults.
6) Eventually change the archive suffix to .xpi(not really sure this is mandatory)
7) Install the extension ( i.e. call file:///path/to/file/myfile.xpi from Firefox)
It should work.
