OK, I seem to have got it slightly wrong.

I checked my collection last night and came up with the following:

* The UK LP has the basic 13 tracks. It does not have Ejection, Flight
to Maputo or Cajun Jinx.

* The sleeve notes indicate that the cassette has the extra track
Ejection.

* The CD has 16 tracks with Ejection, Cajun Jinx and Flight to Maputo as
the extra tracks.

* The Australian LP has 15 tracks, the two extra being Ejection and
Cajun Jinx, but not Flight to Maputo (the last being the bit that I got
wrong).

This all seems to match everyone else after all. Sorry about the
confusion. I'll amend the Codex accordingly.
