Jim,

No, I didn't know about the '*_Local.pm trick'.  Where is this documented?

And even as I look in RT.pm and see the 'eval require ...' statement, it's 
not obvious to me in which paths RT_Local.pm will be searched for, though 
I assume from what you say that it will search local/lib first.

If you can point me to more information about this particular override 
facility, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks.

Mike
