Fraid so, Will. However, since c,f,g,h are interchangeable (as well as p,q and k,j*)
without affecting truth, an extent is easily obtainable, for example:
 
    2345
p   3542
k   2354
x   4532
q   3524
c   4235
f   5324
    2453
g   4352
h   5243
p   3425
x   4523
    2345
 
* j being the Plain Bob plain.
 
Cheers
Rob
