 OK, thanks, I will look into that one as well.   It should be similarly simple
 I think.   It will delay a pullup of this into -10 (maybe into -9 as well,
 I'll look see - but the sh in -8 isn't worth having this kind of esoteric
 bug fixed, that one still has bigger problems - none of these affect any
 common operation though).
