Oops, I somehow missed you off cc when I posted [0] last week, 
apologies. I was planning to stick that in Russell's patch system today, 
but since you've done a slightly more thorough job with s/map/sync/ than 
I managed, I'm happy for this version to take precedence over mine:

I'd hope that the lack of objections to my patch so far (and Dan's 
approval) also apply transitively to this one  ;)

Robin.
