Query on Althusser

I remember very vaguely about an announcement by Althusser near the end of his life to the effect that he had never read *Capital*. I assume my memory is at least partly false, but I wondered if anyone on this list happens to have knowledge of anything like this.

(I'm reading a critique of Althusser, parts of which suggest that if he did read *Capital* he didn't really pay much attention to it.)
