<grrrr> Right, where's my bloody shotgun? I looked at that bug earlier this morning and thought "Nah, how can that be related?" Throwing shit randomly at walls in the hope some of it might stick isn't my usual troubleshooting technique so I left it and looked in other more obvious places. But it cured it, and now I'm still wondering "How can that be related?" p.s. your tip earlier about --changed-use also sorted out this weekend's -hardened clusterfuck with world updates.
