That was kind of what I was thinking, too.  Admittedly, the whole suite 
works rather well, including Kronolith, which is now SQL based rather 
than mcal and mstore based. :)


I guess I get to stick with the HEAD branch until the STABLE (or is it 
RELEASE?) catches up.  Downgrading might introduce some database 
differences, I would guess, that might be a bit painful..
