Oops - sorry to reply to my own post, but I made an error:-(

It *still* doesn't work for system stuff (which was the point, I guess),
even though I'm checking for it. My test case, DIST, is of course source
code so it worked nicely. PLOT etc look pretty impossible. I'll let you know
if I find anything more.

Cheers,

Dave
