Thanks for the proof outline, Christopher.  I see that the
hardest part is left out, though -- counting the duplicate
solutions for U's that are conjugate or related by factors
of i.  Is the condition something along the line of all
            _
the Z's and Z's not being divisible (over the gaussian
                  _
integers) by W or W?
