Thanks to kib for helping resolve this. In a nutshell, at one point there was a problem in STABLE, it was fixed, an= d=20 my local cvsup mirror fell out of sync and while I thought I was seeing a=20 problem from a system updated last night, I was getting an old rev. Updating the system to a mirror that isn't broken fixed the problem. =2D-=20 Thanks, Josh Paetzel --nextPart7464145.Ap4Gex3xgb Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.15 (FreeBSD) iQEcBAABAgAGBQJM6/c9AAoJEKFq1/n1feG2FjsIAK+ikMfUWiUkUEDKxSjprASg UCeuLr2YEnpUwmEnV77a6BUPCH1DYcHHm3rFixyY8aZGlmXTP1BosteSY+oKHu1Q 1gVwJwb+g2LhvanZnHlpY7zhBRzZSQB2ew5gJaoilW01ulQjoTptbBfFBXCq0MPO 0Thi0bYYkODtUOOtIRun0P+s5uT3bdAlmlqHRYFvYO3y8rfoQe0QOctzP5UFiMkb 8Y8DHzc254TSf793g+R0F9I9SclCeBqCwUiLEw1c4o3leR1P5jvldh09oNkSgxuY SBOfh9bqSTcFOn8DMtXgJwSfqV5bSVK9qBGrgy9i4/d4WBilOJnPfVqtR/WizLA= =6VM9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart7464145.Ap4Gex3xgb--
