Howard,

I am having trouble understanding what you changed at the mast head.  My masthead has a pin located at the very front, and the forestay attaches to it.  There is also a pully which is used for the jib halyard.  I do have the spinnaker halyard coming out of a "hole" in the mast a few inches down from the headstay (wich always seemed wrong) to me.  What I don't see is where you would put the forestay if you switched it with the spinnaker halyard.  Maybe I'm reading it wrong, but I just can't make sense out of it.
