Argh! Mea culpa everyone! Turns out that there is a similar few lines of code later on in the code. I was confusing which was which. (I was using meta-x goto-line but then looking at the wrong but somehow, as it appeared on the same screen in emacs.) So the error was occuring at a similar line in the code, but one at whihc logMsg *wasn't* being set beforehand. Sorry all, thanks for your help, appreciate it!
