No “luck” needed, just your experience & expertise! Thanks so much once again.

Using %R instead of $B works just find in my platexmkrc, which for the possible benefit of others who see this is now:

    add_cus_dep('glo', 'gls', 0, 'makeglo2gls');
	   sub makeglo2gls {
			   system("makeindex -s basic.gst -t '$_[0]'.glg -o '$_[0]'.gls '$_[0]'.glo");
	   };
   $makeindex = "makeindex -s %R.ist %O -o %D %S";

(I did _not_ retain the original add_cus_dep('idx', 'ind', 0, 'makeidx2ind’); sub makidx2ind rule that I had tried in platexmkrc .)
