I produced them a while ago and may have managed to mess something up in between, but they were made using PYTHIA 5423 in AGILe head, with MSTP(142)=1, which produces pT-enhanced weighted events (thanks to James). I'm not sure if that's the problem... worth checking. In fact, generally worth checking the weighted events to see if there are issues, since when they work they make life *much* easier, especially around the UE profiles.
