I understand. Believe me. :)
I'd also go into site building -> themes and save the global configuration settings. That should guarantee the list used in $hooks is cleared and regenerated.

I use Nusphere's phpEd debugger which lets me break and step through line by line. You can also see the values of global and local variables. They have a trial if you want to try them. I've also used notepad++ with xdebug which is open source.

Since it checks if $cache[$hook] is set before executing, I'd look at $cache[$hook]['arguments']

Well, doing an ini_set("display_errors, 0); in index.php had no effect. I AM clearing caches, etc in between these various
attempts, btw...

Putting a stake in this thing's heart seems harder than it should be....Going to go cruise the error log and see if anything might show up in there....

Thanks,
