Well it didn't exactly 'remove' the error message. It merely intercepted a
second calling of nchan which was caused by a previous fix. As far as I
could determine the mechanism by which nchan was called the second time was
valid, but the error message nchan produced was invalid at that time. Hence
it is intercepted by the additional switch arguments. An alternative is to
detect further up the sequence of events that nchan is about to be called
again and then prevent it - this seemed a lot messier.

However, I await the correct fix :-)
