Thanks Christian. That does work.
Given Ben's neat ^V fix, I wouldn't strongly advocate the patch on the
basis of my use case, though. (Dunno if it has broader applicability.)

Well, it isn't consistent with manual input behaviour. Chaining several
instances of subsequently-undone expanded abbreviations leaves a space
separated sequence of the abbreviations. Dot, however, results in
placing an expanded abbreviation, and undo undoes the _whole_ expansion,
leaving nothing.
Sorry Christian, I think I'll rebuild without the patch, now. But it did
push me to update to the current patch level. (So while I remain an old
Vimmer, I'm no longer an Old-Vimmer.)
