Thanks - I guess then that confirms that it _was_ an issue (which is why 
I posted this here rather than run do a bug report.)  I forget exactly 
why I ended up grabbing the snapshot that day, but there was some reason 
I'm sure.  I'm not one to update unless I have to or I get several 
months behind ;-)
