I recall hearing of such a threat in France, though not
from ETA, in about that time period.

Yep, could have been France, thinking about it. If that's the case it'd be
interesting to know whether the intelligence that resulted in the French
scare was related to the activities in Spain. Or maybe even France was the
original intended target, which was switched when they became aware of the
threat.
