That it's probably a 10.20 feature surprises me not at all...

I'll be spending the rest of the day building a test-rig and trying to
duplicate, then fix the problem.

The Sophos installation here pre-dates Mailscanner - it's rsynced from
another box and the ide path is different to the one expected by the
wrapper. (And 10.20 uses SHLIB_PATH rather then LD_LIBRARY_PATH)

sophos-wrapper worked once I'd fixed a typo, but I think I'd still
prefer it to report its problems to syslog rather than the 'help I'm a
prisoner in a toothpaste factory' approach above... :/
