Similar symptom, certainly. The 2 cases mentioned in 1421 both derive
from a path that is actively deleted, then attempted to be editted. My
case is a path that is never actually created.

If I understand the concept of the algorithm correctly - it chooses the
'nearest' place to copy from, then applies the right set of delete
operations, then I agree that one fault could cause both symptoms.

I see Karl added a potential diagnosis to 1421 overnight. I'll try to
get my head round them, and adapt his debugging output.

Cheers,

    Mike
