I took in Glen's and Edward's replies - wow what a history lesson!

 - quote Edward Reingold: "who'd have guessed how much it would grow
over almost 30 years, or that my code would still be around" [1]

So it doesn't look like the problem will be fixed at source any time
quickly.  

I'm going to persevere until I've talked myself out of it since I'm
learning a lot!

Best, Martyn
