Thanks to Paul and Garry for their responses.

I was hoping not to have to track down all instances dtml-var that call an
integer from a MySQL query and edit them.  I was hoping instead to track
down what changed to introduce this behavior and cure it systemically.

Oh well, as I once heard my supervisor sigh:  "Why is _nothing_ ever
easy?"
