Well, there may be a 'monotone' server, but there's no 'mtn' server
;)

Well, I didn't, because I have no idea how you could even do that[0].
I pulled it fresh for that run (and was hesitent to try re-pulling,
since it took close to an hour).  But I did a re-pull of just the
X.ctwm branch into a freshly init'd DB file, and `pull`'ing from the
checkout seems to work right this time.


Ah hah.  I know what happened.  I init'd the DB, and *TRIED* to pull
from repository (which of course utterly failed to produce anything).
THEN I corrected the command line and pulled from guardian, which
worked.  But it for some reason decided to REMEMBER the server that
didn't respond, instead of the one that did.  Pbbt.  (Just tested, and
it worked like that)



[0] Nor would I've, since I don't trust the old DB from the really
    frighteningly flaky earlier version builds.  A revision control
    system that dumps core unless you turn off every safety post in
    malloc(3) really doesn't tend to inspire confidence in the
    integrity of the results   ;p
