Even after restarting, there are labs (viz. cal.ijt and uu.ijt) which
I see have been downloaded and apparently installed
(i.e they are listed in ~addons/labs/labs/lablist.txt and
~addons/config/config.ijs) -yet do not appear in the Labs dropdown.

Just where does jhs get the contents of the labs dropdown from?
