Am I correct in thinking that I have to finish the RTW in Egypt ? (plan would be to use the return of the reward tickets to get back to the UK). Is there any problem there with nested tickets ?</font>
Yes. No.

And how do I actually go about buying the ticket ? Once I've decided the routing, can I call BA (for example) and confirm the ticketing, then just turn up at the ticket counter at CAI and they issue the ticket there ?</font>
Yes in principle, but you will probably need to call BA in Egypt and they may or may not be familiar with DONE5 tickets.

No.
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">In addition, if routing SA-NA-SouthPac (as a second trip to NA but allowed as a transit ONLY) does that second SA-NA segment come from the SA or NA entitlment (or if the connecting flight is on top of the segments, is it a freeby) ?</font>
It's a freebie (the intercontinental part that is).
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Finally, am I correct in reckoning that flying US-Hawaii and breaking the flight there before continiuing onto Oz, that the US-HNL flight is part of my six NA segments ?</font>
Yes
