OK ... I've moved aside the existing 4 conf files and moved in the 4 default ones (as I don't believe I have done any customisations to the old ones)

and then ran selfupdate ...

So, that looks like it's done something "new" ... sync source indexes ... running selfupdate again straightaway obviously didn't throw the same warning. And I received 70 or 77 bytes back rather than the Megabytes the first time (above).
