Second problem, we're all smoking against different patch levels.  To
make this really effective, we should all work on the same one.  I
know there's some sort of daily snapshot lying around.  Insted of
rsyncing perl-current, we should probably download this.  It'll also
lose the dependency on rsync, which doesn't work on alot of OS's.
