Ah, that's the problem. That machine is running client version 6.2.18 
from the Ubuntu package. This is the latest version that's hit Ubuntu 
Jaunty (I see that Karmic will have 6.4.5, which still isn't good 
enough), so I'm going to assume I shouldn't be relying on this behaviour 
yet.

Thanks for your help, David & Eric.
