Len,

The map in the CIA's World Factbook at
http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/vt.html shows the boundary
hugging the colonnade and leaving these buildings in Italy, just exactly as in
my 1981 NGS atlas.

I have found some non-specific references to some 1984 revisions to the Lateran
Treaty. Perhaps the boundary was revised in this area.
