I've been told that it's not possible to put files back on the vendor
branch after 5.0 since it breaks cvs -D.  I would have liked to put a lot
of the files back on due to the fact that they haven't had local changes
for quite a few drops.

That being said, I'm willing to spend time fixing the 0228 dist but am not
going to have enough time to roll another in May.  If someone else would
like to take this up, it would be nice.
