While I don't disagree with the method, per se, I'd rather not make the trek to the data center unless I absolutely have to. I'd just really like for the buildworld &c. to work as they're supposed to. :-/ So if anyone can tell me what to do to fix that buildworld from 5.4-RELEASE-p2 to go up to 6.0-RELEASE, I'd appreciate it!
