Of course I started at 2.0.5 and I don't "make world" often because I am a kernel hacker, not a utility hacker. 8-). Specifically, a CVS update with a changed tree failed when the rev on the checked-out, changed file was not the same as the updated rev of the same file in the tree. I had to awk "tags" onto the CVS/Entries lines for each file I changed to make it work.

It wants me to install the new headers for the MD5 stuff that the client and server use to validate. Specifically, it wants "struct MD5Context", which I don't have one of, not having rebuilt the world.
