OK, thanks, now I'm in context.  I just checked and version 5.1.2beta
incorporates the 5.0.11 changes that were made to pqing and pqsurf.  I
hadn't been involved with those changes, so wasn't aware of them, nut
I should have noticed the description in the RELEASE_NOTES about 

    Mods to wmo_header.(c|h), surf_split.c and pqsurf.c to handle
    FXUS4* type metars

and connected that with your original problem report.  As far as I
know, none of the other changes made in 5.1.2beta should have
interacted in any way to counteract the 5.0.11 fixes, but if we have a
specific test for the 5.0.11 fixes, I'll run that.
