Incidently, Graeme, not only do you need a sample of all the instruments you
want to support in Argyll, in order to test and debug, but if we'd want to
go further, you would also need a sample of monitors you want to support
with those instruments, in order to test and debug too -- would you care for
a NEC PA241W? Otherwise, Argyll is never going to be able to calibrate any
system at the "hardware", monitor internal LUT level, right?

Ideally yes, although this problem is being mitigated slightly by Display Port
providing > 8 bit digital connections to the display.

I conclude that it's not possible to provide this level of functionality
in a free software context, and that only commercial software products generate
the cash flows needed to make this sort of thing happen.

BTW, I've been kicked-out of the ColorSync List -- for no apparent reason. I
realize I would have like to put this post on the ColorSync List too, but it
seems this List has more interested readers these days ;-)

Hmm. Sounds like a technical issue. Have you simply tried signing back in again 
?
