For what its worth a quick search of the IeB Philologica version
(http://philologica.indica-et-buddhica.org/
<http://philologica.indica-et-buddhica.org/> ) of the Mahabharata and
Ramaya?a turned up the following:

Mahabharata:

 04,003.003d*0072_001 nadu??as ca bhavi?yanti kisora va?ava api

 04,003.003d*0074_001 na ma? paribhavi?yanti kisora va?avas tatha

....

****************************************************

What is advertised here as "the IeB Philologica version" comes remarkably
close to the GRETIL version launched in 2003:

http://www.sub.uni-goettingen.de/ebene_1/fiindolo/gret_utf.htm#MBh

In fact, I consider it identical, unless Richard Mahoney can point to an
independent source of this version integrating constituted text, star
passages and appendices, with exactly the same references. So the lines in
question could have been found there, too, without registration and
circumstance.

[Unfortunately, the above version is not identical with the "Mahabharata
online" by Hans Ruelius, also on GRETIL. An update is long overdue, and
perhaps it would be better to shut this service down until it finally
arrives.]

Greetings

Reinhold Grünendahl

P.S. I haven't registered for "IeB Philologica" so far, but Richard Mahoney's
hint has aroused my curiosity.
