Hi, Nadia.
As you are talking about a strange exception (actually, one doesn't ussually change SETS from their accustomed default so often), I think the best thing would be to wrap the SET changes around the code that actually uses them.

Most surely you need to change EXACT in a method or two, so you can set and restore it state there. The closer the code to set and restore can be, better, IMHO.

That way, you can just rely on a stable environment.

Hope this helps. Good luck.
