Didn't work, I'm afraid.  Here's a transcript:

I can certainly test an update - problem is, the trigger is intermittent
and rare.

Interestingly enough, when I had a peek in
{arch}/++pristine-trees/unlocked I found patch-2 and patch-4.

I tried doing a 'tla uncacherev' again, then test with 'tla cachedrevs'
and patch-4 is still listed.  The files in the pristine tree remain
untouched.  I'd have thought these would be deleted, no?
