Ah, it's the perform. I was wondering about the validity of a FOUND test after
discarding the results of a query. If I just write the result into a dummy
variable without using PERFORM it progresses to a different error (but that's
down to a check constraint I haven't changed after changing my mind about the
values in the field).

So I wasn't blind, just dim.
