My saying this year seems to be "That which is not tested is broken".

The same information might be duplicated in pylib.py?   I think I fixed that..based on a quick read.       Maybe we pickup all m3makefiles? Maybe.    Just rm -rf from your tree anything that is giving you trouble now, as you've already built lots of stuff.     - Jay

That's the way to get ahead at this point, yes.

I will have to take a look at ESC sometime, though.  It looks like fun.  
This is the stuff that processes all the mutex comments in Trestle, 
right?

I really had thought it was long-lost code, never to be seen again.  Or 
has someone started writing it anew?
