Thanks Michael.
I should have mentioned the downgrade solution in the original post, rather
than just warning people off the nasty combination. A great example of
badly-planning tech writing :) 'What to do if your computer has been badly
set up'. Mind you, that combo was my own silly fault - I wasn't thinking
when I installed software, just put on the latest versions of whatever I
could find.
Oh well. All serene now. 3 days sleep after the huge project we just
completed, and I'll be up and running (*sigh* as if!).

Dear Naomi (Kramer)
Upgrade one / downgrade the other. Whatever gets the ages / eras / epochs
of the two interacting applications in synch.
Good use of lateral thinking, plus you solved some other issues.
Well done!
