Ah, OK. It manifested very recently, though, and definitely some of
the stuff that Jan did was related, in that code that was in the old
Options Menu support is no longer called.
I remember vaguely your discussion; if you can tell me about when you
did it, I'm sure I've got the list archived back that far. (If you
happen to have the thread _easily_ accessible, I wouldn't object to
being sent a digest but it's not really necessary.)
