I agree, but because straight lines are expressed as two explicit
curl statements ('--' is a macro expanding to '{curl1}..{curl1}'),
finding the right spot in solve_choices() to intercept this case
(as opposed to other {curl} values) is not immediately obvious to
me from the code.

Best wishes,
Taco
