Doh! Of course, what I'm seeing is an artifact of how I'm doing the debug output... arg... I am in the middle of tracking down another issue and I thought the whack output was part of the larger problem. That biased my reading of the output. Sorry for the noise folks, I should be using a logging library anyway.
Thanks Tobias and Armando! Grateful to have a helpful community in the face of my obvious lameness :-) Take care.
