I guess if I just rebuild from CVS source with this flag set, you're
saying I'll be all right?

Thanks for the info... I'll give it a try.

I had upgraded the machine with a snapshot from the Japan snapshot
image server; apparently, no one ever thinks of compressiong ISO's,
so that was at the limit of what I could download.  8-(.

It may be a good idea to put this flag in by default, at least until
5.0-RELEASE, so that it will be there on the snapshots.
