I've lost track of this now, but I'll try to reconstruct it and the thought process that caused the confusion. Thanks for the comments, and perhaps this should have been on help- rather than bug-. I guess it can be smoothed out anyhow. [For what it's worth, I'm interested in avoiding obstacles to using saner solutions on HPC systems, and the obstacles don't have to be very high...]
