perhaps.  More importantly, I shoudn't have been a bonehead, and I
shoudl have submitted the report from the machine where i had the
problem, namely quiche.  I was unable to reproduce the problem on
the-other-woman, from which I submitted the report.  Oops, sorry.

Yes, I can read.  I you'll note the sentence above that one dismiss
that problem, in favor of examining the problem of trying to get a
service key for the wrong host.

I would argue that that is equally likely, not more likely, since it
is the same thing I suggested. :-)
