FSVO "newer" ...  I was pretty sure there was actually nothing at all in
that one for us - but reviewing all the commits again, I see there is a
one-character typo fix in the docs (accurred -> occurred), and a one
line patch for a corner case that I'm not sure anything actually trips
over in practice.

The 1.3.3 release was mostly all futzing about in the build system for
Visual Studio, MacOS, and CI testing so it had been on my Meh Not For Us
list.

There's actually some more interesting fixes after the 1.3.3 tag, so I
should probably nudge upstream toward a 1.3.4 tag sometime soon and pull
in the corner case patch with those.

Automatically, yes - but usefully perhaps not so much.  Especially since
I'll generally get a poke directly from *upstream* if there is something
important in these which we are missing - and what is in git is usually
more interesting than what is in a tarball on the download site.

But thanks for the poke to review this again and note the current status
where people who aren't following git might see it.

  Cheers,
  Ron
