This might be due to a hiccup caused by a change in the
message-sending program; Garry rewrote it to deal with a problem
involving attempts to send messages to a blocked backgrounded process,
first discussed elsewhere on bugs re Matlab; I switched it yesterday to
the modified message-sender; it seems OK now so I'll assume the glitch
has gone away...
