Well, having installed a clean RPCEmu089 and copied across the ROM and
HostFS contents from the 088/517 installation, I reinstalled and
retested !Photodesk - same error as before! So there's something about
5.17 that it doesn't like. So my next step will be to upgrade to 5.19
and test that.

Any guidance on how to do the 5.17>5.19 upgrade would be appreciated:
it's a year since I did the first install from scratch, which was from
the then-current ROOL Emulator stick, so was fairly straightforward
(AFAICR). I presume there's more to it than simply replacing the 517
ROM with a 519 ROM in the Roms folder....

PS: on the bright side, the Romark stats for 089/517 are slightly
faster than 088/517 across the board!
