I neglected to say that I'm quite happy to put quotes around my
keyword parameters.  I had in fact thought that
   ADMBase::lapse_evolution_method = 1+log
was a syntax error.  Now that I know it isn't, I don't really care,
and I wouldn't mind being required to do what I've always done,
   ADMBase::lapse_evolution_method = "1+log"

ciao,
