no worries, i'm just trying to capture whatever info i can from your
struggles to possibly solve both of our problems.

Ah, so this script is broken with Quills 1.6 because it deals with an
overcomplicated feature we removed, and making it work with 1.6 might
be easier than making it work with 1.5.

In new-land Quills, you don't get /archive/etc.. locations, but you
can still use those urls via traversal.

That's great news!  Thanks for helping me to unravel the problem,
Henning.  I plan to delete some code this weekend. :)
