I can't understand why the 'burp, hiccup' ones are a problem. I could under=
stand if the PS went into constant current limit, but my impression is that=
 the 'burp, hiccup' ends up supplying pulses of current, and not continuous=
 current.

Unfortunately the foldback function you are after is a relic of liner power=

imply because they need to 'burp' to get any volts on the output side.=20
