I thought of that myself, but I thought I tried rebuilding the book and 
got something that was byte-for-byte identical.  I suppose I could have 
been hallucinating...  I'll try once more to be sure, and also compare 
with the one you built.

I know, and it's already there in the new default winboard.ini settings 
as well as the new Start / WinBoard menu entries.  You didn't see it in 
your winboard.ini because (as you noted) you were installing over an old 
version and your old winboard.ini settings were preserved (not the best 
thing to have happen in this case, sigh).  Engine installation needs a
redesign...
