Need help (still) with GetTailTime()

I hate to be a whiner, but I posted the following query here nearly a month
ago and haven't seen any responses. The problem seems to show up with any
application that uses AUGraph as well as Digital Performer, so it's not just
a DP issue. It also happens if my plug-in is based on AUEffectBase rather
than AUMIDIEffectBase. The functions SupportsTail() and GetTailTime() and
the tail-time property are not documented, AFAICT, so I'm really stabbing in
the dark at this point.

I'd really not feel good about shipping a product and having to tell my
customers "well, it works right with Logic, GarageBand, and Live, but I'm
stumped as to why it doesn't work in DP, Numerology, and some other
hosts..." As it is I'm probably going to end up releasing the VST version
first and then release the AU version when I find out how to fix this.

Thanks for your assistance.
