Similarly for me at the moment :(

Right, but I suspect most (?) folks on this list will be upgrading
to the next snapshot.

I just want everyone to know that if we make the diff and they apply
it that they won't be able to then upgrade to the next snapshot.

It's also likely I'll just supply a single diff file for the ss1201 ->
egcs-1.0 changes -- they're small and making all those little diff files
is a pain when I can't use the standard snapshot process.
