 If you load the most recent dump of prod and then install master (properly
 configuring it to use the recently loaded dump, of course), then you'll
 get a broken site.  It seems that there've been some changes to the
 database layouts that aren't yet scripted to automatically update old
 databases?

 Anyway, this should get fixed by somebody.  Either prod should have it's
 db upgraded or else make install should detect that the database is doing
 the old thing and massage it so it does the new thing.  Because as it is
 right now, you can't deploy a mirror of prod with master (or even the
 recent -rc) without a lot of fiddling.

 Speaking of fiddling, I'm attaching a bunch of SQL statements that henning
 gave me, which can be sourced into a working dump of prod to make
 everything work (for some limited value of work.)  The cost of doing this
 is that all of your authentication and authorization information will be
 destroyed and replaced with the data from Atlantis.  So don't do this on a
 machine you intend to be a real working mirror, just one where you need to
 test with the full dataset.  Or, run this and then load the dump again?
 That might work.  I don't know.
