Having now upgraded, here are results:

Still can't delete an AR transaction, even though audit trails and 
forced-reversals are off.
Guess I have no choice but to reverse it.  That is not so bad, except that 
this is a transitional set of books, and I can't imagine that this is the 
only AR Transaction that I will bungle in the process.

goods & services -> add assembly
There is no facility on the assembly addition form, for entering the 
components of the assembly.  Is this some how something I may be doing 
wrong?  The only thing out of the ordinary, if you can call it that, is 
the fact that I am using "login.pl?path=bin/lynx" in order to log in.
(Yes, with good reason)

Can't associate a PO with a project while posting it, but can by reposting 
it.  Annoying.
(There is no "project" dropdown with items)

I don't know if this preexisted the upgrade, but when I try to update 
preferences I get:

"
Error!

   Cannot save preferences!
 "

With no explanation what so ever.

The upgrade fixed this.

I would still like to know:
