I was going to try the experiment but was so put off that I haven't 
bothered.  I will give it a whirl;  I think that it might work because 
the components will have to match correctly in the assignment.

I have spent the day, seeking light relief by fixing library problems: 
 All the NIST problems except one are now fixed.

There are three patches on the way.  The only remaining one is that of 
an internal unit being and array.  I intend to have a stab at it but 
will divert back to 18022 if you like.  I realise, also, that I have not 
committed the patch to pr16940 either.

Will have a busy night!
