Good to know.  I'm not using 7.4 anywhere, but I've got a lot of scripts
stashed away.  I'll bet I need to up those widths to make sure they work
in the future.

Hmm.  Exactly a factor of 2...  I wonder if someone really changed it to
22 intentionally, or some multi-byte code wandered in and changed the
factor. :-)

Thanks for the report!
