  Using Kinetic Monte Carlo simulation, we model gas-liquid spinodal
decomposition in a size-polydisperse square well fluid, representing a
'near-monodisperse' colloidal dispersion. We find that fractionation (demixing)
of particle sizes between the phases begins asserting itself shortly after the
onset of phase ordering. Strikingly, the direction of size fractionation can be
reversed by a seemingly trivial choice between two inter-particle potentials
which, in the monodisperse case, are identical -- we rationalise this in terms
of a perturbative, equilibrium theory of polydispersity. Furthermore, our
quantitative results show that Kinetic Monte Carlo simulation can provide
detailed insight into the role of fractionation in real colloidal systems.
