First, wrong list. Perhaps you're still hung over (or perhaps still 
drunk!), but no worries. BTW - thanks for fixing bunny while I was in 
Chicago.

Just pay shipping and handling...

In any case, doing source builds of packages on a modern CPU is not really 
something to worry about. If it were a 50 MHz SPARC, that'd be one thing, 
but you really shouldn't worry about the amount of time it takes to 
compile BIND or Apache or whatever on an 8 core, 4 threads per core, 1 GHz 
CPU.
