Well, I was on the wrong track with my original protestation, according to
Calvin, and as I missed Doug's original "Head's Up", I'm taking Calvin's
word for it. I'm in the dark as to the details of Doug's commit, and the
"why" of it.
My main concerns now are stated in my last reply to Calvin. Those, and as
another had written [that I had neglected to write], that POLA is adhered
to.
