Felix:

I might be able to try that.

It'll probably be the better part of a week before I will get around to
testing that (only because my analysis script need to load the system
significantly enough in order to trigger this issue).

In regards to your question at the end, someone else who is more
knowledgeable about this stuff than I am will have to take/field that one.

I have no idea.

Thanks.

Sincerely,
Ewen
