Re: issue 94543, some progress and request for help

I am responding only to one of Frank's points now.  The others require
actual thought.

Indeed.  I can't imagine what I was thinking.  Can it be that I wrote a
first cut in my patches directory, worked out the change in SRC_DIR, and
then submitted the first cut?  That seems silly enough to account for
the result.

For other reasons, I started a full rebuild with my local changes (and
encountered exactly the problem you mention), so the working version is
gone.  I shall start over.

Slinking away,
