Its exactly a year since these posts. That was the only reply and I
eventually got a vamps-based solution that more-or-less worked. Last
week I tried searching again and found a real solution, still based
directly on the newer requantisation code released by Metakine but now
adapted for simple use under Linux.

In order to use it I've made changes to mythburn.py, but my current
version has other unrelated changes that won't be to everyone's taste.
The story so far, with my diff file, is here:
