Brett,

It's nice that you have so much energy to write so much e-mails
to the mailing list.
However, if you have so much time resources on you hand, why wouldn't you
take a quick look in the files/patch-??  files ?
If you did that, you'd see that one of the patches (patch-ab)
introduces that.
(see the excerpt from the patch file below).
This way you would've saved your time, other people's time,
and bandwidth, and produce produce a more useful result.

The author of the patch (sorry, don't have time to look into the cvs tree
now) didn't consider the situation that the actual
data directory would be still in the same directory where 
*.default is pointing.
One (who has some time on his hands)
needs to do a few more checks before removing that directory tree.

Best,


Igor
