I wish that folks would test and run before committing.  This isn't the 
first time....  That simple typo would have been caught with the very 
next invocation of build.sh or make!  

OTOH, I saw it at 18:10 EDT, and didn't report it here, assuming that 
I'd merely been caught in a CVS time warp, and the fix would show up 
later.  Especially since the next 2 'cvs up' tries gave a too many 
users try again message.  

Is there an enforced "quiet time" where no new commits are done, so the 
CVS, sup, et alia have a chance to sync?
