You are are assuming that I am running emacs in the system
profile. Meanwhile "tricky george" stopped trying to swim upstream and
installed emacs in the user profile :O. Based on running both ways I
still believe this needs attention. But I am badly off the topic of the
original bug so I will put it in a new post.
I do apologize for the run-around. Many thanks! - George
