Usually a tree bustage happens when someone checks something into the source tree through cvs that is not well tested or not tested on all platforms (some small compiler differences for example). "fixed bustage" is then another checkin to fix the comiling problem, could also be a backout, reverting back to the previous version that was known to build successfully. Andreas
