Thanks Mike, I'll add this to my cheat sheet.  I really should have done
a grep for FractionalItems, but I was half asleep when a client called
with this urgent problem.  I jumped too soon and posted to the list when
I had not exhausted all my other resources (mailing list archives).
I've been meaning to get rid of etc/after.cfg, maybe it's the time to do
so :)
