My initial tests were with the simulator, which does simulate a lack of an 
unload, but my recent updates were all after running the regression script 
many times with a *real* two drive autochanger and the real mtx-changer 
script. In all cases, the regression script completed successfully for me -- 
I am unable to duplicate the problem.

Mantis is not very good at displaying attachments.  I don't know why there 
were more problems with your attachments.  The very last mtx-changer.txt that 
you posted can be read by Mantis. Most if not all of the other files I have 
to actually download to display.
