Lightly; this arose because both rackunit and sxml provide 'foldts' (which, 
honestly, neither one should probably provide, but...). I used the "except-out" 
on sxml, first, and got killed.  I moved it over to 'rackunit' and it worked 
fine.

Have I tried moving sxml into a collection? No. Frankly, I feel like I've spent 
enough time compiling today already :). But you're right, that would be the 
next thing to test, especially since I have every reason to believe that sxml 
provides a *lot* more names.

Thanks!
