Yes, except that I ended up with a 12 meg 'system file'. Some other people
have reported similar problems to me and probably under the same circumstances
(fonts/da's insalled in 'startup System) though I didn't catch the relation
till you pointed it out. Thanks.
I also beleive but am not sure, that it only happened on systems that were
updated using Apple's Installer scripts - will check that out and report.
