However.... there's obviously been a lot of changes from 1.4 to 1.8 and hence something to be said for a fresh recipe rather than mega-appending an older one..? (Well, there certainly would be if it worked....!)
And, as I say, the recipe works on krogoth [cleanly rebuilt today and definitely the same git version] - something subtly changed in some or other class perhaps, but not obvious to me.
