> I am planning to look into vacuum packing the film in sealed plastic,

I generally stash hypered film in double ZIP LOCK bags and drop dessicant
into both inner and outer bags .. and use indicator dessicant ...
keeps it dry until it goes into the camera ...  and since I'm using
4x5 it has to wait until the exposure .. and I shoot in an N2 filled
camera ( which is where Tony picked this up from ) ... so film stays
nice and dry from start to end ... and film goes back into the cool 
dry zip-locs right after the exposure until processing ...

there is no way that I know of to predict how any new film will react
to moisture after hypering ... I think Jerry said " CUT IT OFF AT THE
KNEES" which is my policy .. if you worry about the problem.. then get
rid of it and stop worrying ... <G>
