   It wasn't the presence of the old nodlists/diffs that was causing the     
   problem :)   
      
   However, if OpenXP sees a nodelist in the FILES directory, it ignores it     
   just as it ignores most other files in the FILES directory. The only files     
   it takes action on are nodediffs/pointdiffs and if any of them are out of     
   sequence, it just ignores them.
