	And on that day, your karma really sucked.
	GNOME-of-the-myriad-compoments-which-are-used-by-non-GNOME-things
had a "red flag day" upgrade (2.4 -> 2.6) right around then.  To
unbreak a whole bunch of ports, one had to do the whole GNOME
rebuild.  (Which, though time sunsuming,  was surprisingly painless
for something of that size.)
