Yes.. .when your email came in  I was just looking at the source for 
load_plugin_textdomain and seeing the problem. Strange, as I pulled the 
original I had from a couple of other plugins but thinking about it.. 
they are both rather old (VERY old on e of them!) - and I use neither of 
them. So maybe the call has changed.

This seems to have licked it anyway. I am grateful to you and to Sabin 
as well for the help. And thanks for your patience... I'm getting too 
old for this!
