To follow up: tagInfo shows[1] that most of the import was done using the 0.6 script, with 0.7 as a distant second. I have not figured out what the differences between the 0.6 and the 0.7 version are, but like I said, the mapping files did not change after 0.1 where separated=* was replaced with tiger:separated=*.
