ok, now that I read it, perhaps that was misleading...
pnotes always supported whatever you wanted to throw in it (well everything
I have, at least). But the first alpha of DebugInfo only printed out
SOME_PNOTE => ARRAY(XXXXXXX), whereas now, I use Data::Dumper to make that
SOME_PNOTE => [arrayitemA, arrayitemB]. For clarity, the DebugInfo method
that dumps the request pnotes is also called pnotes - hence the confusion, I
suspect.
Hopefully, that's clearer now - sorry for the miscommunication.
