Thanks to assistance from Dirk, I have determined that the current version will indeed fix most of the remaining import problems I am seeing, and in all likelihood remove the need for the FilterOrphan.cpp that I hacked together... specifically of use will be the fixes revision 264 (6 Sept 2006 - out-of-order actions within same second for my "PIN-UNPIN-PIN" problem)
 revision 273 (17 Jan, ken-widetime branch fixes)


In order to run a newer version I would need to set up a suitable perl environment... I'm sure this is simple when you know what you're doing and which interpreter works, etc. but so far I've not had success and feel like I'm beating my head against a wall!

I tried (the very first time I wanted to run the script) using the perl interpreter that comes with SVK, but this doesn't have several required modules, and it was non-obvious how to add them...

I tried downloading and installing ActivePerl, as this seemed to be recommended for Win32. The Perl Package Manager, however, denied the existence of some of the required modules, for example DBD-SQLite2 is shown as "not currently available" at http://ppm4.activestate.com/BuildStatus/5.8-D.html ActivePerl also got horribly confused when I tried to use CPAN to install this, with compile errors all over the place (it picked up my Microsoft C++ compiler).

I just typed "install DBD-SQLite2" on my ActivePerl 5.8.7 install and it worked fine. My Perl repository is pointing here (by typing "rep describe 1" at the ppm> prompt):
http://ppm.ActiveState.com/PPM/ppmserver-5.8-windows.plex?urn:/PPM/Server/SQL

Trying to install directly via CPAN on Windows is usually a futile effort.
