And while you're doing that, is there a way to avoid the
hard-coded '297680'?

I suggest two possibilities: create another test hive (derived from
'large') which will be specific to this test and we will never change
in future.  Since this won't change, we can go ahead and use
hard-coded offsets.

Or properly iterate through the hive using the standard APIs, to pick
out the nodes we want to test.

Second is probably better, but obviously more work.

Rich.
