Running it that way now, will see what happens next time it's run 
normally, this will probably take a few days before the previously noted 
behavior becomes obvious.  Meantime will look at the ctimes of the files 
in interesting groups and see if they are being updated on read.

What I have is leafnode 1.9.24.rel: hasn't previously given me a problem 
so I've not been concerned to upgrade.  I will look and might venture a 
2.x  just to make life interesting.  ;-)

Thank you.
