The next time that I notice something like this I'll be sure to save the old RCS file and diff them. I'm interested to know if your's died in the same way that mine did complaining about too many and incompatible arguments to 'log'. For my own sake, I'd like to know how file system corruption could account for many occurences of this problem accross many different computers, unless of course there was a filesystem bug that did it, or the curruption was in FreeBSD's repo and not ours and we just happened to sup a bad copy. Here's another dissenter to the corruption theory. http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/htdig/freebsd-current/2004-February/020710.html Ian -- Ian Freislich
