Sorry for the delayed response.
I'm concerned about it, this fix sounds ideal! It doesn't stop me making music,
but many of the sounds in my banks have never been used due to this problem...

OK, I've had time to look at this. First, is anyone actually concerned about
it?
It is easy to apply a fix that allows un-numbered instruments in a bank
provided there is no hyphen '-' at the forth character, with no significant
performance change. Is that good enough?
If not, I can fully re-instate these instruments, but the testing becomes less
elegant.
