Well, not that I disagree with any of the above, but the fact is that this snapshot doesn't have ANY of the changes made since the htdig-3-2-x branch was folded into the main htdig CVS tree. So, it would seem that your snapshot script has gone back to grabbing the now-stangnant htdig-3-2-x branch of the tree, for whatever reason. -- Gilles R.
