Thanks, that is very good to know.  
It turns out my qualms re 5.5.0 are moot anyway because I didn't 
notice that the thread about the 5.5.0 problem (loose timing) 
originated with the claim that the problem exists from 5.2.0 
forward.  I'm on 5.3.0, so AFAIK I've truly no reason not to install 
5.5.0.
