Naive estimate missing

I want to compare the naive estimate with the corrected estimate, but I noticed in Presence v 5.8 the naive estimate is no longer written to the output log. It used to be under the Data Checksum output line. Is there a simple way to calculate the naive estimate from the output?

[EDIT] - I also noted that this seems to be an intermittent problem. Some output has the naive estimate, and some doesn't, even though the DM is very similar.

I have not experienced this problem, but the naive estimate is simply the proportion of sites sampled that have detections so it is easy to calculate if not included in the output.
