yes - that's the formatting bug that I referred to in the changes for
dev.18 (it showed up in dev.17).  IZ's changes to TRST are mostly an
improvement, but this is a step backward.  (I also noticed a problem
with color styles which is technically not a new bug but uncovered by
his changes, and spent some time studying that to see how we might fix
it).
