OK, I'll try and have a bash at it sometime this week. (Wish me luck.;)

I think you mean bgen, yes?:) Don't suppose the patches could simply 
be applied to the existing C code now, and formal rewrites deferred 
until if/when the bgen scripts require other modifications? Or does 
it generate different C code for different Python 
versions/installations?

And the proverbial bus, while not actively running over poor Jack, 
does seem to be parked fairly firmly upon his foot at the moment. 
Curse these inconvenient "real lives" that some people seem to have. 
However, I do have to draw the line at learning bgen myself, as we'd 
be onto OS XVI by the time I've mastered it. :p
