Good catch!  Fixed (and checked in).

Fixed (and checked in).

Rain check?  I am jumpy about this one.  For example, I can
imagine a site where you bounce between "test" and
"production" ARK-ing by changing profiles.  Having it
automagically go to one thing *might* be disastrous...

I actually do *not* set ARK_PROFILE in my personal .profile.
I would rather be yelled at for not setting it, so that I
*think* about what I'm about to do.

I reserve the right to change my mind in the fullness of
time :-)

Fixed (and checked in).

OK, I checked in something based on this (good) suggestion.

I defer this to another message.  Thanks for the excellent
report.
