I was working up to re-doing it for current again and then complaining
bitterly!

Grand - I'll have a look at this one - should be easy enough to fix.

We remove "foo" on line 611. I think I was worried about options like "notice"
and its obvious inverse "nonotice", it has the less obvious inverse "tice"
which hopefully wouldn't be a distinct option.
I'll produce a version for -current of today with the NULL pointer
dereference fixed and send it later today.
David.
