thanks for the upload, and sorry for the delay in installing (a machine
vital to my tool-chain failed to switch on this morning -- fortunately,
a colleague was going into work, and was able to start the machine for
me).

i've installed the new version and updated the catalogue repository.

The catalogue entry will change (somewhat) overnight tonight.
