Ugh -- I was afraid you were gonna ask that.  I wasn't here when the DB was
originally created, so I've no idea.

I have the feeling that I'm going to need to recreate the controlfiles if I
want this fixed.  And until the situation gets worse, I don't think I can
justify (to myself, much less everyone else impacted) fixing it.

[sigh]

Thanks, Brandon!
