was it a bug? I figured from what you said when we met that when people
were grabbing commands at random from the prof libs to give to the
yaroze, they simply missed out something vital to handle those? Or is
that people thought the right stuff was there only to find it knackered?
if so, how was this got around with prof dev kits?
