Yay, wonderful, thanks! Fixed in git now, including pulling directly from GitHub instead, so we now have self-tests. I recall seeing self-checks dropped from the pypi tarballs before, so maybe I should make a habit to pull directly from git for future python packages. IIRC the python team policy lead me into the pypi approach. /Simon
