SEYMOUR, Circuit Judge,
concurring.
I fully agree with parts II, III, and IV of the majority opinion. I concur in part I only because I am bound by this court’s prior opinion in United States v. O’Driscoll, 761 F.2d 589 (10th Cir.1985), cert. denied 475 U.S. 1020, 106 S.Ct. 1207, 89 L.Ed.2d 320 (1986), which can be overturned only by the court en banc. In my view, the better interpretation of 18 U.S.C. § 4205(b)(1) (repealed Nov. 1, 1987) is set out in United States v. DiPasquale, 859 F.2d 9 (3rd Cir.1988); United States v. Castonguay, 843 F.2d 51 (1st Cir.1988), and United States v. Fountain, 840 F.2d 509 (7th Cir.), cert. denied — U.S. —, 109 S.Ct. 533, 102 L.Ed.2d 564 (1988). But see United States v. Berry, 839 F.2d 1487 (11th Cir.1988), cert. denied, — U.S. -, 109 S.Ct. 863, 102 L.Ed.2d 987 (1989); Ro-thgeb v. United States, 789 F.2d 647 (8th Cir.1986); United States v. Gwaltney, 790 F.2d 1378 (9th Cir.1986) cert. denied 479 U.S. 1104, 107 S.Ct. 1337, 94 L.Ed.2d 187 (1987).
