Matt et al,
I have some small changes that enable a "host_dmax" configure option
for gmond. This allows you to tell gmond to remove a host after a
period of inactivity. "If we do not hear from Host A for 10800 seconds
(30 days), delete him from our local hash table." This feature is the
complement to adding nodes, which gives some nice symmetry to gmond.
This is not a critical change, but we do see occasionally a dead node
sticking around for weeks or months after it has been discarded from
the cluster.
There is basically no new code besides the config-file option, since
cleanup.c has had this ability for some time. I have tested it on
Linux, and it works as expected. If you want this feature for 2.5.6,
let me know and I will commit. Otherwise I will hold off until the next
release.

i'm 99% sure it's all good because when i got your email i did a cvs
diff.. saw your changes.. cvs update and then make dist.
It's not in there. You've got configure.in 1.37 and you need 1.38 to
get the removal of the bogus *ia64*) case at line 332.
