I found a case where pre-expansion with an index expands way too many symbol tables. Fixing this will necessitate changing the pre-expansion API, plus maybe some other things. I think it would be simpler for me to fix up the index code first, then update this patch to fit. Also I would be able to test this patch for the over-eager expansion problem as well. I'm out next week but I will finish up this work the week after. Tom
