It was. I remember now that .8 was rolled just /before/ we found this
problem and fixed it. It was well documented until a couple months ago,
when it got cleaned out with a bunch of other outdated stuff, because,
well, like I say, .8 is nearly a year old and there's been a /lot/ of
changes since then.
.8 had other problems even once you got it built.
