Subject:   **HEADS UP** if you used to cvsup the crypto repo from internat !

I haven't looked into it too deeply yet because of other source tree 
problems, but if you used to get your crypto ,v files from internat, 
you will suffer some funny problems unless you nuke the old checked-out 
files.

My apologies if this is old news, but I see nothing in UPDATING.

The problem occurs when you cvsup the new crypto-in-src-all sources 
and replace RCS files with different contents and the same version 
number.  cvs update/checkout compares the repo version number against 
the checked out version number and considers the file an ``M'' 
(modified source).  The file isn't updated and your world gets 
corrupted.

This is probably a candidate for UPDATING.

Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour !
