Yep, it did, thanks.  :-)

I'm well aware of this, thanks...  ;-)

Quite possibly, as a closer inspection does seem to reveal... I still 
don't understand why I didn't have that "%" in the first place, though, 
and why it did work "before" (I'm pretty sure I've never touched that 
line!)... Unless this new version of (La)TeX, keyval, etc. is "fussier" 
than the previous one -I remember a similar thing happened (long time 
ago) in upgrading from an old version of amsmath to a later one...

	Again, many thanks,
