Dear Brandon,

The only difference with my own (perfectly working) supfile is that
after the *default entries, I have a plain empty line.  The examples in
/usr/share/examples/cvsup also have at least one empty line between the
last *default and the first collection entry.

Could it be that this little omission has bit you and skipped the
`src-all' line instead of considering it a valid collection name?
