I had already put exactly that, to help break out when I got bored. I'm afraid it just confirms that we have different problems: that script gives me no trouble. Perhaps it would give me trouble if the timeout went up from 5 seconds to 10 hours (it does not at 10 minutes), but that doesn't feel like a very useful line of enquiry. I think for the moment I'm going to hope that under the surface our problems are related, and when your bisection points a finger, look around to see if it suggests anything for my case. Lazy, but...
