+PH/02 Several tidies to the handling of ${prvs and ${prvscheck:
+
+      (1) Generate an error if the third argument for the ${prvs expansion is
+          not a single digit.
+
+      (2) Treat a missing third argument of ${prvscheck as if it were an empty
+          string.
+
+      (3) Reset the variables that are obtained from the first argument of
+          ${prvscheck and used in the second argument before leaving the code,
+          because their memory is reclaimed, so using them afterwards may do
+          silly things.
+
+      (4) Tidy up the code for expanding the arguments of ${prvscheck one by
+          one (it's much easier than Tom thought :-).
+
+      (5) Because of (4), we can now allow for the use of $prvscheck_result
+          inside the third argument.
