In this case the PIC pulling the gate low did not always turn it off=20
(verified ~0v at gate, but still conducting).  In addition it would=20
occasionally turn itself on.

Turning itself on "occasionally" was likely caused by my ICSP, rather=20
than anything else.  However I did not realise this at the time.

Both problems could also have been caused by the breadboard, my fingers=20
poking around etc.
