Matchchunk and the variables list

When I try this....
put "hello there" into tstring
put "llo" into tfind
put 0 into ss
put 0 into se
if matchchunk(tstring,tfind,ss,se) then
put tstring&return&ss&return&se
end if
I expect to get...
hello there
3
5
Whereas I get....
hello there
The matchchunk expression worked (I got to the put statement) but the variable list was ignored.
What am I missing (apart from the start and end variables)

P.S. Posting via the babble interface seems to have a gotcha in that if you do not paste to the sub-forum the post doesn't seem to get to the list.
