Eric,
   Thank you, thank you, thank you.  This not only fixes the problem I
reported with with
FixedLocator(..) but also another one where I was using MultipleLocator(..)
and getting
the same problem issue with dropping first and last contours.  The later
isn't as easy
to work-around but your change fixed it.
