Tym Pedals also makes the Tymexar mini (I think that's what it's called) which is an updated killer version of the Distortion +.
I have the Bob Mould version but it's the same thing and the Tymexar is usually cheaper used.

Buzzaround into a vintage one both intrigues me and would solve a second problem.

Color me intrigued as well. I often run fuzzes into OD's to tame volume and do some mild EQing.

What in particular about those two circuits compliments each other?

The vintage one i own sounds the best to me (the non script one in the front). The script reissue is also good. I love these to add a bit of drive and boost the amp.
Pro tip: a buzzaround in front of a distortion+ gets volume wise tamed and sounds awesome.
That's the stuff right there! Nice one, Uni.
