That ended up doing the trick, after all that. Horribly kludgy and yuck,
but, it works after a fashion, even allowing cgi-bin stuff. The
important settings I ended up using were:

ServerName localhost
UseCanonicalName off
NameVirtualHost 203.8.116.41

Ta for the suggestion :). It was one which I really really didn't want
to have to try, but, in the end, it's saved me a pain in the butt
uninstalling 1.3.0 and reinstalling an older Apache.
