Dave, thanks for that check.

b-files are supposed to be complete as far as they go. So the current b-file
should probably be shortened, and there should be a warning that
there could be missing terms.

I don't have a feeling for how much of the present b-file is likely to be
correct,
but someone should please edit it.

Neil.
