My chartread command for at least the later three charts definitely
included -B . I'm not 100% certain of the first two (in one of which the
transposition occurred - I haven't checked which yet).
I *thought* I'd disabled bidirectional reading from the very start, but
I'm not sure enough to say "that's not what caused it".

I've seen it a few times. It seems to be associated with the use of the
-s and/or -g arguments to targen when generating a target that's then
run through printtarg. I'll try to put together a sequence of commands
that reproduce the issue for you.
