Makes perfect sense. leafnode internally assigns first = last + 1
for pseudo groups, so the apparent reversal of these figures means the
group is empty.

Hum, now that might be a point. I think the whole pseudo group and group
count correction stuff needs to be factored out.

I'll play with this a bit and try to figure what's really going on. I
hope GDB watchpoints work today... (or I may need to debug with DBX on
Slowaris ;-)
