Ack, I suppose thats what you get for replying to a reply not the
original, I thought it was a thread from a while ago :(

 Yeah, 'identify' on any item that has not got its cslots and tslots
assigned will crash.  Like I said, do a search for my update in the
mailing list archives .. it fixes all the bugs in the original
snippet and adds a tad more :)
