Right - it fixed the symptoms only.

Hmm. Good point. OTOH it only showed up in the backbranch (and only in one of them), so I figured we might get away with it. Have you figured out any way to actually track down which para has the problem itself, or is it all manual work? > Of course, it would be a lot better if the toolchain didn't have this > limitation (or at least managed to report it more usefully).
