  Hi, Ron and Marc. I did receive the bugreport from Michael Rose, first
posted to p.b. but I thought it best to follow a standard of first posting
in .general. At the time, it didn't occur to me to ask Michael to post only
the diff relevant to his bugfix. That's a good idea.

  Here's a copy of my post to Michael:
