17 Ok, that's fine. Thanks for the information. I just couldn't see why
18 we (sparc people) were getting:
19 "mozilla-1.4-r3 is too old to keep around, so if you want something
20 stable, you have to downgrade to something that's REALLY old."
21
22 I'd prefer not to file a bug report, because that seems like too
23 big a hammer for something this small. But I will, if anyone wants.
