Yes, I broke down and got a snapshot, which I would have needed to do
anyway. But it would come in handy for those SRPMS that are disconnected
from cvs. I guess it's an issue of being lazy on my part.
The checkins shouldn't cause problems, but the patches out in the wild
might cause more problems than anything.
Oh well, possibly one day...
