I had a report from one of the users of the debian wwwoffle package,
that he upgraded to 2.6x (presumably from 2.5) and that the changed
matching caused a couple of large caches he had to be wiped out.
He had a specific age line for those sites with an extremely high
value, and the default age = 28.  That default age = 28 line didn't
get resorted (it should be moved to below all other age lines!), and
hence the url-specific lines aren't used at all. The result was a
purge to 28 days of the complete cache.

Hence the upgrade-config.pl script should also resort the plain
age = line. I attempted to fix it, but for some reason I don't
quite grok how the script works :-/


Thanks,
Paul Slootman
