Doh! How did I slip that in? *sigh* I'm pretty sure used the correct
entityID on an previous test (which I recall being successful). I was
actually hopeful that this test might have showed some sort of replication
of the problem. However, when I use the correct entityID, there is no
metadata error, it is correctly identified as a member of the REFEDS R&S
category, and generates the expected attribute statement. Mea culpa.

Unfortunately that puts me back in the position of an intermittent problem
I have so far been unable to nail down or replicate. :(
