Many thanks (I'm sure from all of us) to Martin Maechler for taking time at a late hour on Friday evening to resolve the delays on the R server at ethz.ch (hypatia). Hypatia (cunning minx) waited till his back was turned before settling down to do her worst. However, all seems to be well now, so thanks again!
