...further than that, I did find something odd - it stopped connecting
in that special case.  So I continued debugging and found a case where
an error-state wasn't being cleared.  At the moment, it's working (with
ongoing changes).

However, 2.8.7pre.6 is rather old - about a year - Ubuntu supposedly ships 
Debian/testing, though it seems that it doesn't apply to any program that 
I'm involved with.
