How do I find out which backend is in use /slash/ how do you select
the backend?

I suppose I can set some default (will check for that...), but I'm not
sure how to actually "see" whether that was successful... that's
assuming changing the backend doesn't break anything else, in which
case I should see it pretty soon.

I guess for now I'll just try to make another hack to the library to speed
up things a bit.
