Haha, of course not. I probably should have dug a bit first, whoops. I
just built pacman-git on that box and it seems to have done what I
expected now, so thanks for letting me know I don't even know what
we've done in 3.3.

On a side note, I *really* need to make time for 3.3 release planning
and the actual release. Hopefully everyone on the list will be ready
for the barrage of activity needed to get this thing out the door, so
start formulating any thoughts for last minute things that we need to
fix or do.
